"Suspending soon due to Inactivity" keeps the system awake. Any solution
I'm running Fedora (latest) with GNOME. I have my screen set to blank after 1 minute of inactivity, and automatic suspend enabled (default 15 minutes on AC).
- After 1 min, screen blanks – fine.
- After a while, the "suspending soon due to inactivity" notification appears.
- That notification wakes the screen and keeps it on.
- The notification stays on screen for many minutes (I waited 4+ minutes – still there).
- The system does not suspend during that time.
- Eventually, after what seems like another full idle period (not sure, anyway it takes way longer), the system finally suspends.
It looks like the suspend warning notification itself is resetting the idle timer, so the pending suspend gets cancelled. The notification then gets stuck on screen.
From quick google search i found the notification appear around 30sec before the suspend. but i can surely tell that's not the case.
anyone faced this?
