[SOLVED] Arch linux on new Thinkpad X1 carbon Gen 11

Dontpanic_x · 2023-06-22 01:51:59

The hardware is only a few months old so I am not finding a lot of information with Arch linux installed on the X1C Gen 11.

For the most part everything works really well. The ONLY problem I am having is with power management:
- Changing from Performance, Balanced, and power saver
- Sending to Hibernation & Suspend

I know the support is not mentioned yet here https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Laptop/Lenovo I have however followed the instructions to enable swapfile and use it for hibernate linked here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_ … _swap_file

Which It seems that everything does go into hibernation but as soon as it does and everything goes black (screen and keyboard light) it starts back up to the desktop within a second or two. Anyone know how to find out the cause of this or how to fix this issue?

Hardware: X1 carbon gen 11
32gb Ram
1tb drive

OS: arch

I've tried various things that I cant think of off the top of my head following various guides and fixes that did not work

For the S3 issues, please post your complete system journal for the boot after attempting an S3:

sudo journalctl -b | curl -F 'f:1=<-' ix.io

Also see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_ … om_suspend and possibly https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_ … om_suspend

Edit:

I've tried various things that I cant think of off the top of my head following various guides and fixes that did not work

And please don't paraphrase, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57855
That line contains no information whatsoever.

Apologies for the ambiguous of the "tried various things". here is a list of links that lead be to starting this thread:

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=259382
(turns out i have enough swap space)
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=157526
( part of the problem to not go into suspend or hibernate )
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=205349
(un-commenting HandleLidSwitchDocked=suspend) didnt help
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_management (part of the above attempt)

The command:

 $ sudo journalctl -b | curl -F 'f:1=<-' ix.io

posted a lot of information on that site that i would rather not have out there. Without running the command properly with a username:password to allow deletion or read only a few times and delete after, i unfortunately have no way of deleting that information which is is disheartening. Please inform me what you are looking for and i can post that information here.

As far as these links:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_ … om_suspend
(my /proc/acpi/wakeup does not have EHC1, EHC2, and XHC.

From what I understand - these are for USB3.0 which are not plugged in or causing the wake-up. I ran the commands:

# echo EHC1 > /proc/acpi/wakeup
# echo EHC2 > /proc/acpi/wakeup
# echo XHC > /proc/acpi/wakeup

ran as root (not sudo) and there was no change to wakeup

as for this one: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_ … om_suspend

lvs

resulted in blank. Not sure if it was because my swapfile is a file and not a partition in the drive, but

swapon --show

results: /swap/swapfile file 26GB 0B -2
and

free -h

shows 0 used on sawp and 1.8Gi in memory

Also to note which I did not mention before:
I am using a btrfs swapfile following these instructions:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Kernel_parameters

Which I have gotten the offset and placed into the

 /etc/mkinitcpio.conf

HOOKS=(base udev autodetect keyboard modconf block filesystems [b]resume[/b] fsck)

file.
I followed the instructions on
Hibernation into swap file

Also edited:

$ sudo vim /etc/suspend.conf

snapshot device = /dev/snapshot
resume device = f449328e-1106-4878-aaa8-682098981eec
resume offset = 982883

Please inform me what you are looking for and i can post that information here.

"Problems", the journal isn't supposed to contain any sensitive information. sudo commands gets audited and logged so you might want pay attention to that if you posted sensitive information to sudo for whatever reason.

Without running the command properly with a username:password to allow deletion or read only a few times and delete after

… or do just that?

From what I understand - these are for

… everything that triggers wakeups. Instead of blindly toggling values, post the file contents first.

lvs

isn't relevant to the link I posted.
I recommend to first focus on S3 not auto-waking, once that's sorted out, look at S4

un-commenting HandleLidSwitchDocked=suspend

That thread is completely irrelevant to your situation, that system wouldn't sleep when docked, your's immedialy wakes up under all circumstances.

How about the modem, does it work?

Ok

i can see this:

Jun 24 10:24:59 archie systemd-logind[684]: The system will hibernate now!

which I'm thinking is the issue but I'm a complete newbie to this and you might see something more in dept...Thank you for the help and education

The problem is(most likely) this here:

That's apparently a 5G Modem?
If you're not using that, try to blacklist the module, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Kernel … and_line_2 or even better: disable it in the BIOS if possible.
Otherwise you'd have to stop using it, unload the module before the attemting to sleep (check lsmod to make sure it's gone) and try again.

I attempted to look disable it in the bios but did not find it. I was however able to black list it using that link adding:

blacklist mtk_t7xx

to

$ /etc/modprobe.d/nobeep.conf

This allowed the sleep to work however hibernate just ends up shutting down. Not sure the beef here but in a way you can mark this as [SOLVED] thank you Seth...you are really good at this

seth · 2023-06-26 13:08:52

Hibernate will shut the system down, only on the next boot the system loads an image (if things are setup correctly, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_ … ibernation )

Mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.
