Human Presence Detection on Lenovo IdeaPad

Can't figure out how to turn off this crap option.

Firstly UEFI doesn't have an option to disable it.

❯ cat /proc/acpi/wakeup
Device	S-state	  Status   Sysfs node
GPP0	  S0	*disabled
GPP1	  S4	*disabled
GPP2	  S4	*disabled
GPP5	  S0	*disabled
WLAN	  S3	*disabled  pci:0000:01:00.0
GPP7	  S4	*enabled   pci:0000:00:02.3
GP11	  S3	*enabled   pci:0000:00:03.1
SWUS	  S3	*disabled
GP12	  S3	*disabled
SWUS	  S3	*disabled
XHC0	  S3	*enabled   pci:0000:64:00.3
XHC1	  S3	*enabled   pci:0000:64:00.4
XHC2	  S4	*disabled  pci:0000:66:00.0
NHI0	  S3	*enabled   pci:0000:66:00.5
XHC3	  S3	*enabled   pci:0000:66:00.3
NHI1	  S3	*disabled
XHC4	  S3	*enabled   pci:0000:66:00.4

libinput list-devices | grep -i presence

gives nothing

❯ ls /sys/class/hidraw/
hidraw0@  hidraw1@

It's definetely this human presence detection

❯ udevadm info /sys/class/hidraw/hidraw0

Re: Human Presence Detection on Lenovo IdeaPad

yes I do

there are tons of those wakeups and as I said not sure which is mine and how to correctly disable it

For example here is one example

cat /sys/class/wakeup/wakeup1/device/wakeup/wakeup1/device/device\:0c/wakeup/wakeup12/

and those wakeups from 1 to 50 in each dir

Re: Human Presence Detection on Lenovo IdeaPad

I'm aware that you said UEFI doesn't have any option about it but maybe you just missed it. Happens to best of us. I found this in Reddit:

Called Lenovo yesterday, they confirmed the setting is not in Lenovo Vantage, need to go to bios.
-go to BIOS

    go to Security tab>Intelligent Security>User Presence sensing

-switch it off then save and exit.
Restart the machine, issue resolved.

This is a very stupid feature btw.
