OS: MX Linux 23.4

Just noticed after the last 2 system update that my screen after going to dormant/suspend can't wake up. I've setup my F7 to turn off the screen, it seems this is not the cause, because if I move my mouse few minutes after turning off the screen by activating F7 key, it works, but if the time is longer (probably between 10-15min, not sure, hasn't timed it), moving the mouse won't turn on the screen (it seems the OS stopped sending signal to monitor, I haven't noticed this behavior before the last 2 updates). The command I'm using for F7 key is xset dpms force off. What am I missing? Is there another way to "wake up" Linux? Currently the only way I found is "hard shut down" (press ON button for few seconds, then the pc shuts down), which I'm pretty sure is not recommended. ps: I've posted this question on MX forum, still waiting for reply.

  • @pico sorry, I'm not that knowlegeable about linux, I assume you're looking for syslog located at /var/log, how can I attach this file here (it's 1.9MB)? Commented Jan 20 at 11:59
