Sleep/Suspend not working on Mac

Hi all,

My environment is Arch + Gnome + Awesome, I use dual boot on my Mac. Basically the logind seems broken. When I close the lid arch will still be open and I expect it to ask for login password or sth. That is when I start to messing with the /etc/logind.conf. Turns out the Sleep works, but it never ask for login passwd. The suspend breaks,  every time I do a suspend the laptop will die and I have to force a reboot to bring it back. This os dead also happens when I do a systemctl restart systemd-logind.service.

Gnome class works out of box. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance

This kernel patch may be helpful, though I have not tried it yet.

@archAg21 Thank you very much for the reply. I can try that in a while.

I switch back to KDE and everything works fine now.
