Wifi disconnects when lid closes

Support Network
1

Hello,
Everytime I close the lid on my laptop the wifi disconnects and upon opening it stays like that.
I have to right click on network manager on the taskbar and check “Enable wifi”.
I have red other post on the forum and searched online.
Changed settings in Power Manager on Laptop lid to do nothing or switch off display it still happens.
Changed the file logind.conf and the Upower and nothing.

I’m dual booting this laptop with MX Linux XFCE and this situation doesn’t happen.
Any clues on how to fix this?

I don’t know the answer, so I did a search with keywords linux disable power save for Realtek RTL8723BE

This led me to a section on the Arch Wiki on USB autosuspend which suggests udev rules to control which devices should be included/excluded from autosuspend.

I recall Ubuntu has some extensive udev rules applied, to adjust the default, sometimes undesired, behavior of various devices, so I am thinking that MX Linux (IIRC being based on Ubuntu) has inherited those rules, but that is a guess.

You could look into their rules - compare with Manjaro - and apply the relevant rule(s).

I faced the same situation as you, albeit on a different model but still the same brand HP laptop that is a convertible. I can help you with rectifying this annoying behavior if you send me the following:

$ cat /sys/class/dmi/id/modalias
$ sudo pacman -S evtest
$ sudo evtest                  # select device event of `AT Translated Set 2 keyboard`

Then close and open the lid so that it does a random airplane mode activation. Press Ctrl+C to end the execution then copy the output of the last command here.

Do you think I can copy the etc/udev rules form MX to Manjaro with no issues?

Both are XFCE and systemd.

MX is based on Debian.

In theory that should be possible. But you know what they say… :backhand_index_pointing_down:

“In theory, theory and practice are the same thing. In practice, they are not.”

Now run it as sudo evtest /dev/input/event4. Don’t forget to include the output of cat /sys/class/dmi/id/modalias.

Great! Now run the following:

$ echo -e 'evdev:atkbd:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:br*:efr*:svnHP:pnHPPavilionNotebook:*\n KEYBOARD_KEY_d7=unknown\n' | sudo tee /etc/udev/hwdb.d/61-keyboard-local.hwdb
$ sudo systemd-hwdb update
$ sudo udevadm trigger /dev/input/event4

Let me know how it goes.

etc/dev/rules.d folder in manjaro is empty.

In Mx Linux the same folder has:

Why a screenshot when you can do the same with ls and get an output that can be indexed, searched and copy/pasted?

Anyway, they are all plain text files, so inspect them, and then you can try copying them over and see what it does.

Great solution @braveheartleo, coiuld you please provide the technical background and some explanation why it happens and why the solution can fix it.

I know the issue is solved - just om input on how to find a rule in MXLinux or Ubuntu or whatever, matching a device from your system.

Udev rules are for controlling and manipulating any device.

I don’t know if it would useful to copy all rules, I would search the ruleset that affect my device.

Taking info from your inxi we have chip-ID 10ec:b723 which splits into idVendor and idProduct.

We then apply a search in the udev rules

grep -rl -e 'ATTR{idVendor}=="10ec"' -e 'ATTR{idProduct}=="b723"' /etc/udev/rules.d

Or in the system folder

grep -rl -e 'ATTR{idVendor}=="10ec", ATTR{idProduct}=="b723"' /usr/lib/udev/rules.d

You’re welcome. :smiley:

Technical background regarding the solution is provided in this file systemd/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb at main · systemd/systemd · GitHub

From there you can see several HP laptop models defined, preventing the ‘random activation of airplane mode’ coming from the lid keys, particularly the KEY_WLAN. The list is not exhaustive, so one has to come up with the right entry for a model that is not covered in the file.

The thing is that on MXLinux XFCE on the same machine this issue does not happen…

DIfferent downstreams, different implementations. Either Debian, antiX, or MX Linux itself may have done some additional quality of life changes that improve on issues such as this. Where that change may be one will have to take a closer look.
