~> inxi -M\nMachine:\n  Type: Convertible System: HP product: HP ENVY x360 Convertible 15-ed0xxx\n    v: Type1ProductConfigId serial: <superuser required>\n  Mobo: HP model: 8757 v: 08.42 serial: <superuser required> Firmware: UEFI\n    vendor: Insyde v: F.24 date: 03\/16\/2022\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
HP notebook does not work, there are several fixes and tweaks to the system that can be tried. I have literally tried all of them, and believe me, they all DO NOT WORK. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is the problem? The suspend function in linux works ok, because<\/p>\n\n\n\n
# systemctl suspend<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
works flawlessly. But it does not work when setting the events in KDE plasma Power Management settings. Believe me, it simply does not work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then I tried a LOT of other options, ranging from GRUB kernel boot options to creating custom ACPI events and letting systemd logind handle the event etc. etc. etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I spend a lot of time, none of the options worked for me. Finally this solution worked. it uses a service to manually suspend the machine (since the command does work normally). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here are the 3 things you have to do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Create a unit file<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Create a unit file :<\/p>\n\n\n\n
# vi \/etc\/systemd\/system\/lid-suspend.service<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
with the following content:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
[Unit]\nDescription=HP Envy lid close suspend poller\nAfter=plasma-kwin_wayland.service powerdevil.service\nWants=plasma-kwin_wayland.service powerdevil.service\n\n[Service]\nType=simple\nExecStartPre=\nExecStart=\/usr\/local\/bin\/lid-suspend.sh\nRestart=always\nRestartSec=5\nCPUWeight=1\nIOSchedulingClass=idle\n\n[Install]\nWantedBy=default.target<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
2. create a script<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Create the following script:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
# vi \/usr\/local\/bin\/lid-suspend.sh<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
with the following content:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
#!\/bin\/bash\nexec > \/var\/log\/lid-suspend.log 2>&1\necho \"$(date): Lid poller v2 started - checking all paths\"\n\nwhile true; do\n  for path in \/proc\/acpi\/button\/lid\/LID*\/state \/proc\/acpi\/button\/lid\/state \/sys\/class\/input\/*\/uevent; do\n    if [ -f \"$path\" ]; then\n      if grep -qi \"closed\\|LID=closed\" \"$path\" 2>\/dev\/null; then\n        echo \"$(date): Lid closed op $path - suspending!\"\n        systemctl suspend\n        sleep 15\n        break 2\n      fi\n    fi\n  done\n  \n  # Fallback: input event checken\n  if ls \/sys\/class\/input\/input*\/name 2>\/dev\/null | grep -qi lid; then\n    echo \"$(date): Lid input device gevonden via fallback\"\n  fi\n  \n  sleep 1\ndone<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
3. activate the files<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
# chmod +x \/usr\/local\/bin\/lid-suspend.sh\n# systemctl daemon-reload\n# systemctl enable --now lid-suspend.service<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
