It is incredibly annoying to me that my mouse wakes the computer when I barely touch it. If I want my PC to turn on, I press the Super key.
I find very hacky scripts online, I tried some but they didn’t work. How did you disable it?
This option is missing from settings.
I just unplug the mouses USB from the PC and plug it back in after putting the PC to sleep. Et voila, pc no longer wakes from mouse.
Turn the mouse upside down.
Also, check your BIOS settings. Turning it on from completely off also sounds sus, surely it’s ‘hibernating’ or something, right?
Which distro? Do you have
tlpinstalled? If so, you an usetlpuito configure lots of power related settings.I created a systemd service by putting the following in /etc/systemd/system/disable-mouse-wakeup.service
[Unit] Description=Disable Mouse wakeup triggers [Service] Type=oneshot ExecStart=/bin/sh -c "echo XHC0 > /proc/acpi/wakeup" ExecStop=/bin/sh -c "echo XHC0 > /proc/acpi/wakeup" RemainAfterExit=yes [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.targetThen I ran
sudo systemctl enable --now disable-mouse-wakeupIt works perfectly on my AMD machine.
unfortunately, that doesn’t work.
Run
cat /proc/acpi/wakeupand try some of the other devices instead of XHC0 if they are enabledEdit: Remember to run
sudo systemctl stop disable-mouse-wakeupto reset them if it doesn’t workUnfortunately, disabling the devices doesn’t work.
RP01 S4 *enabled pci:0000:00:1c.0 RP05 S4 *enabled pci:0000:00:1c.4 RP06 S4 *enabled pci:0000:00:1c.5 LID0 S3 *enabled platform:PNP0C0D:00 PBTN S3 *enabled platform:PNP0C0C:00I had this device earlier but I disabled it with your systemctl service earlier and although I stopped the service, it didn’t come back. Probably, it’s back on next reboot.
XHC S0 *enabled pci:0000:00:14.0I didn’t test LID0 or Powerbutton.
What system do you have? Laptop or desktop, if laptop which one, if desktop which mobo do you have? Check your bios for any sleep options, specifically S0 vs S3 standby.
S0 standby vs S3 standby can change things a lot. If you’re in S3 standby then it’s up to your bios/firmware to handle waking from sleep. If you’re in S0 standby then your OS is in control.
