I have a no-name netbook-style laptop running up-to-date Fedora 29.
<https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=710_577_367&item_id=117289>

When I close the lid, fedora almost always puts the notebook in sleep 
mode.  Unfortunately, once in a while, it does not.  And then my battery 
runs down.

The notebook has a light that indicates sleep by blinking slowly.  
Unfortunately, it is not visible while the lid is closed.  Bad design.

I could put the notebook to sleep and then close the lid, but this is 
quite a bit more fiddly.

Why would Fedora fail to sleep once in a while?

Does anyone else experience this?

How would you go about diagnosing this problem?

(My fear is that this is a firmware bug.  I'm pretty sure that there will 
never be firmware updates.)
