Good evening everyone, need help please. I bought an HP Victus 15 AMD Ryzen 5 8645hs RADEON 760M Nvidia RTX 4050 gaming laptop and I installed Ubuntu 24.04.1 on it in dual boot. But I realized that when I press the sleep button at the top far right or the power button, the screen turns off, but the fan spins without ever stopping and when I even wait for 30 or 45 minutes and when I lift the screen, I see that it is still working and that the battery level has decreased. Need help please. The hp came with windows 11 home. Thanks in advance.

There seems to be an ever increasing number of issues with Windows 11 and Linux (almost as if intended). Anyway, there may be something odd going on with Windows 11 Fastboot. Restart, log into Windows, completely shutdown, no fastboot. It locks filesystems etc. so I would not be surprised if more modern firmware's ACPI can be messed with, too.

Only other thing I can think is run systemctl suspend in a terminal and see what errors it outputs. Could very well be an ACPI issue in Ubuntu's defaults, could maybe be a firmware bug. I'm assuming it's quite a new laptop given it has a 40-series nVidia GPU.

Best option: Wipe Windows, forget dual-booting. On that rig, albeit a laptop, you shouldn't have too much bottleneck running it in a VM. Whether you consider your OEM installation "license" transferable is between you and your maker, personally I do, but that may not be congruent with the law.

PS: Please remove the formatting on your post, it's literally making me dizzy. This forum doesn't support certain BBCode, but your color tags don't look right for anything. Protip:
[ COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 0) ] [ /COLOR ] (sans spaces).
Font size: 15, use bold, italics, or underline for emphasis.
