From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Finally got my wife away from Windows and on Fedora 40 (Gnome 46).

Now, when her PC goes to suspend and when she wakes it up, one of her 2 monitors doesn't wake up.

Both are connected to HDMI ports (no dedicated video card, just the integrated card in her Ryzen 9).

Any ideas on what could be happening? I wouldn't want her to go back to Winblows over something so insignificant, but she would.

This happens to me consistently on Linux Mint. My secondary monitor which is an HDMI TV resumes fine and takes over as primary. The primary screen on a Display Port over USB fails to wake up.

I’m using the edge kernel line, version 6.5. I’ll try to downgrade to 5.15 to check if this is a kernel regression.

I’m running an AMD system with embedded graphics from Minisforum, btw. What are you running and which kernel?

i got pop (fresher kernel?) and xorg but same issue you described. i keep unplugged unless i am using it but also since it will limit main monitor fps.

I have tried disconnecting and then connecting the display to see if it will wake up, but it doesn’t work. Sometimes shutting down the display and turning it on again work.
