[SOLVED] F15 FX507: Only external keyboard wakes laptop from Suspend

ravenousByte · 2025-12-02 06:52:56

I have an ASUS TUF F15 with an rtx4070 gpu. When I'm dual booting windows and arch with hyprland.

When i put the laptop to suspend mode only the enter key from an external keyboard wakes the laptop. The builtin power button, keyboard, touchpad, external mouse does not do anything.

I tried

cat /proc/acpi/wakeup

to see if the power button is disabled

It doesn't show any devices like PWRB, LID...

I've also tried a lot of other things with nvidia power management before realizing the external keyboard works.
I would highly appreciate any help and am happy to provide any additional information.
Thanks in advance.

oh wait, they are in

/sys/class/wakeup/

see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_ … s/wakeup/*

even though they are shown to be enabled there, the issue still persists

yes i found the wakeup trigger in

 /sys/class/wakeup/

Its enabled for me too. I tried switching to deep suspend state from s2idle. But that just performs a clean boot.

I did manage to get hibernation working though. I guess I'll use that instead for now.

hisham shefeekh · 2025-12-03 12:01:50

mine only supports s2idle

When I'm dual booting windows and arch with hyprland.

3rd link below. Mandatory.
Disable it (it's NOT the BIOS setting!) and reboot windows and linux twice for voodo reasons.

Do you have any BIOS/UEFI settings for the wakeup behavior?

I don't think it's a fast startup issue. I had both fast startup and the BIOS setting fastboot disabled from the start.

hisham shefeekh · 2025-12-03 21:04:13

To add info, I am on CachyOS with KDE and is having the issue. Since OP is on Arch with Hyprland, the issue is probably unrelated to DEs. The one thing we have in common is that we are on an ASUS TUF series laptop. So I think this is a device specific issue.

seth · 2025-12-03 21:49:58

It is most certainly related to the HW (more specifically the ACPI) and most certainly not some DE.
Make absolutely sure that windows fast-start is *still* disabled (it frequently gets re-enabled w/ udpdates)
The BIOS setting is irrelevant, it controls some initial self-tests - the concern is that windows might be hibernating while you're running arch.

Otherwise you might lie to the firmware and convince it that this is actually windows and it can enable certain features:

acpi_osi=! acpi_osi="Windows 2015"

I checked just now. Since I disabled hibernation recently, fast startup is not even an option in control panel anymore. I presume hibernation is necessary for fast startup.

I did this and it didn't go well. The system was not booting with

acpi_osi=! acpi_osi="Windows 2015"

So I tried it with just

acpi_osi="Windows 2015"

This time it booted, but the 'not waking' issue was not resolved.

It booted with

acpi_osi=! acpi_osi="Windows 2013"

Didn't solve the problem though

W/o "acpi_osi=!" the subsequent acpi_osi won't do much and apparently the system doesn't like Win10 and doesn't change w/ Win8
Are there any BIOS/UEFI updates available for the system?

Fast-start /is/ hibernation (in disguise)

Just checked. It is indeed on the latest BIOS.

This issue seems familiar. But I tried the solution and didn't work

The other thread wrote:

When I press on my keyboard or click on my mouse, the LEDs on my keyboard and PC turn on as expected, and my monitors appears as if it will display something

There're countless "failed to wake-up" threads but most (like the one you linked) don't revolve around dysfunctional specific triggers but failures to initialize the system (that thread seemed to revolve around nvidias VRAM preservation mechanisms)

hisham shefeekh · 2025-12-05 02:55:13

This one actually might be the same issue.
https://www.reddit.com/r/AMDLaptops/com … are_button

They also have an ASUS TUF laptop but a different model. They seem to solve it by downgrading their BIOS. The version that worked for them is 307 or 309. But that won't work for me because the latest BIOS version on my model (FA506NCR) is 304.

Only if there was a way to know which BIOS version for my exact model will work correctly . Also I am a little hesitant to downgrade the BIOS since on ASUS's website, the latest BIOS update has a severity rating of "critical"

Finally! I found the fix . I don't know how it managed to go under my radar all this time, but the arch wiki had a section specifically for this issue.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Laptop … h_no_iGPU)

Basically u just set this nvidia kernel module parameter

NVreg_EnableS0ixPowerManagement=1

I wonder why it is disabled by default.

ravenousByte's problem might be different, since his/her work with an external keyboard. As I previously said, I don't have an external keyboard to try. Anyway, give this a try ravenousByte.

I actually tried changing these options in nvidia.conf file before. But nothing changed. I have this option set to 1 already. Does your laptop not have an iGPU. The article https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Laptop … h_no_iGPU) is for laptops with no iGPU.

Yea, mine does not have an iGPU. So it is a different problem after all.

Just to make sure, you regenerated the intramfs after setting the parmeter, right?

Yes I did.

I checked again to see if fast boot and hibernation is off in windows.

I also tried adding this to grub.

acpi_osi=! acpi_osi="Windows 2015"

I just found out something. When i suspend the laptop just after i do a hibernation, suspending works normally and power button works one time. If i try to suspend again, power button doesnt work again. If i do hibernation again, suspending works again one time.

This only happens after hibernation. Shutting down and booting again does not do this.

This is starting to sound ridiculous now.

ravenousByte · 2025-12-06 07:59:56

UPDATE! : I FIXED THE ERROR

using

journalctl -b -1 | grep -iE 'suspend|nvidia|acpi|pci'

i found the error

Dec 06 12:41:42 archlinux kernel: ACPI Error: No installed handler for fixed event - PowerButton (2), disabling (20250404/evevent-255)

then i found this https://github.com/linux-surface/linux- … issues/316
which had a link to this article https://sylence.cc/posts/power-button-surface-go-2/

After asking gemini i found a fix.

The fix is to perform an ACPI table override to tell the kernel to always expect the "Fixed Power Button" mechanism, which forces the kernel to install the correct handler, or simply correct the invalid flag set by the BIOS.

==================================================
Prerequisites

sudo pacman -S acpica cpio

Steps:

# Dump the binary table
cat /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/FACP > facp.dat

# Decompile the binary data into human-readable ASL code
iasl -d facp.dat

# open facp.dsl
nvim facp.dsl

In the facp.dsl file you have to change two things.
1. increase the Oem Revision number to ensure the kernel uses your patched table.
2. change 'Control Method Power Button (V1)' value from 1 to 0

...
[018h 0024 4] Oem Revision : 00000001  # <--- Change this to a higher number
...
... Control Method Power Button (V1) : 0  # <--- Change this to 0

then

# Recompile the patched table
iasl -tc facp.dsl

# Create the directory structure and CPIO archive
mkdir -p kernel/firmware/acpi
cp facp.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
find kernel | cpio -H newc --create > acpi_override

# Move the override file to your boot partition
sudo cp acpi_override /boot

add the line

GRUB_EARLY_INITRD_LINUX_CUSTOM="acpi_override"

to /etc/default/grub file.

Finally update grub

sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

Reboot.

=================================================

Thanks for the help.
