Hello, I usually don't ask for help but I am totally out of ideas with trying to get the pc to suspend or wake up. I suspect it's Nvidia's fault.
The behavior is always the same:
1. Click suspend or let it suspend on its own
2. Monitor turns off and the GPU fan immediately spins up to about 70% speed
3. Case/radiator fans spin up to about 70% speed, much louder than when it was being used
4. I can feel heat coming from the cpu radiator, so it's thinking about something which pisses me off because it's a 320w CPU and who knows what could happen
5. It will remain like this for days "asleep", pumping out heat and cooking the cpu
6. Will not "wake up" no matter what tricks you try, have to hold the power button and start fresh
I've tried the following distros in the last 7 days:
Arch
Nobara
Tumbleweed
Fedora Workstation
Fedora Budgie
Arch again
Mint
Ubuntu installer failed due to being plugged in to Nvidia
PopOS
VanillaOS
Ubuntu again plugged in to mobo hdmi (successful install but of course no sleep, but had the most comments online for sleep workarounds try)
And right now Zorin is installing and I'll paste in logs and info once it's running.
The sleep/suspend issue seems to be related to Nvidia cards. I tried the workaround where you disable the Nvidia sleep/hibernate settings but that didn't work either.
I've adjusted everything in my motherboard and enabled/disabled S3 and tweaked every bios power setting available will multiple distros. Reset the cmos to be sure it wasn't my fault for tinkering with settings.
Here's my hardware:
Motherboard: Z790 Aorus Pro X (very few distros play well with this board in terms of finding and installing realtek ethernet/bluetooth)
CPU: Intel 14900KS
GPU: Nvidia 4080 Super
This isn't the end of the world but I really can't trust it because if I forget to shut it down and just leave the suspend mode completely off, it could start processing something imaginary or update in the middle of the night, or if I'm on vacation and just continuously pull 320 watts on the cpu or something until it fries lol. We all know intel cpus can't control themselves.
Let me know which logs I should pull and I'll paste them in, thank you.
