I have that issue on my netbook which uses Slim as a display manager to launch an i3wm session. It looks like Slim isn't launching dbus, which also breaks a host of other things, like managing removable storage devices. The problem is not present on my x64 machine where I manually launch Sway with dbus-run-session.

Hi, Antonio Carlos Padoan Junior skribis: > I do not know why but "suspend" stopped working on my computer > after a recent upgrade (pull & reconfigure). By that you mean that ‘loginctl suspend’ doesn’t have any effect? I’ve just tried on my laptop and it works for me with this system generation: --8<---cut here---start->8--- $ guix system describe Generation 204 Oct 10 2022 00:29:29(current) file name: /var/guix/profiles/system-204-link canonical file name: /gnu/store/yvaj9yi25rm16q9j6jccviaf5i55hk83-system label: GNU with Linux-Libre 5.19.14 bootloader: grub-efi root device: label: "root" kernel: /gnu/store/8s41d36dgb700p3g5jbgl5vy7wi7lbsw-linux-libre-5.19.14/bzImage channels: guix: repository URL: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git branch: master commit: e827d45db92d6e1f9dc68199cd40cb5d67de9d46 configuration file: /gnu/store/p4w6x2q9x9cakslb0n6qcqyydn5y0a8m-configuration.scm --8<---cut here---end--->8--- > However I'm intrigued because my > /run/current-system/profile/etc/elogind/logind.conf As Tobias wrote, it’s a trap. :-) The config file that’s actually use can be found like so: --8<---cut here---start->8--- $ sudo herd status elogind Status of elogind: It is started.

Antonio Carlos Padoan Junior 写道： I will investigate further. All right! /run/current-system/profile/etc/elogind/logind.conf What made you find/look at this file? It's not used. I don't know why it exists. Oh, I was on the wrong track. :) Ah, so it exists as a funny prank! That's good. (Or maybe it isn't.) This obvious trap bugs me, but I'm not sure what to do about it. That's why I asked how you found it. - I do like the fact that /gnu/store/xxx is a little microcosm of what the package thinks its world should look like—including /etc. - Patching hundreds of packages to ‘make sysconfdir=$out/share/doc/examples install’ or so is no improvement. - /run/current-system/profile/etc *is* the actual system configuration for at least one thing (etc/ssl) so we can't simply delete the former to enforce /etc usage and reduce user confusion.

This is a desktop computer I use at home. My objective is to save (some) energy. This is preferable than nothing.

Re: elogind configuration
Hi Antonio! Antonio Carlos Padoan Junior 写道： I do not know why but "suspend" stopped working on my computer after a recent upgrade (pull & reconfigure). Do you still have a working system generation to compare? Does suspending without elogind work? E.g., using the more reliable ~ λ echo "mem" | sudo tee /sys/power/state # or "freeze" user interface. Is anything interesting logged (in ‘sudo dmesg’, or the aggregate /var/log/messages) when it fails? If all else fails, try reconfiguring and rebooting with an older kernel, e.g., (use-modules (gnu packages linux) …) (operating-system … (kernel linux-libre-5.15) …) I was hoping that configuring suspend-state variable to "freeze" instead of the defaults could eventually fix my issue. I know you probably know this, but I must point out for the archives that this drains your battery (and/or wallet) faster. /run/current-system/profile/etc/elogind/logind.conf What made you find/look at this file? It's not used. I don't know why it exists. You can view the configuration file of the currently running elogind with ~ λ sudo grep -0a ELOGIND_CONF_FILE /proc/$(pgrep elogind)/environ Kind regards, T G-R signature.asc Description: PGP signature
elogind configuration
Hello Guixers,
I do not know why but "suspend" stopped working on my computer
after a recent upgrade (pull & reconfigure).
I tried to overcome it by modifying elogind configuration in my system.
I modified my config like this:
(define %my-desktop-services
;; List of desktop services that supports a broader range of scanners.
(modify-services %desktop-services
(sane-service-type _ => sane-backends)
(elogind-service-type config =>
(elogind-configuration
(inherit config)
(suspend-state '("freeze"))
The %my-desktop-services is been used later like this:
(services (append (list (service ...) (service ...))
%my-desktop-services))
I was hoping that configuring suspend-state variable to "freeze" instead of the
defaults could eventually fix my issue.
However I'm intrigued because my
/run/current-system/profile/etc/elogind/logind.conf
file seems not to had changed at all (all lines are still commented). I was
expecting
to see at least the following line changed after the system reconfigure
(and reboot):
#SuspendState=mem standby freeze
But no.
What I'm missing in my %my-desktop-services definition?
Am I in the good track?
Best regards,
