since some resent upgrades of my Debian testing/bullseye distribution, my user gets logged out while in sleep-mode (lid closed).

  Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux bullseye/sid
            Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-5-686-pae
      Architecture: x86

I'm using Gnome 3 desktop:

GNOME Shell 3.30.2

does anyone know how to fix this or which package is responsible for this behavior?

  • Just logged out or does the machine maybe shutdown instead of suspending? I've had a similar issue on my Arch for a few months now.

  • @terdon no it is not shutdown, it takes a view seconds and I get back to the login window. The machine does not go through the whole boot process again.

    when this happened to me on some older software, it meant XWayland crashed (which gnome-shell treats as fatal). in my case it was SIGBUS which is not logged by the kernel, unlike SIGSEGV. So, you can look in your kernel logs (journalctl _TRANSPORT=kernel), but if that is not helpful I would recommend installing the systemd-coredump package and trying again.

  • @sourcejedi do I need the logout happen before doing the coredump?

    Yes. 1) install systemd-coredump 2) put your computer to sleep and see that the unwanted "logout" bug happens 3) to start with, look in the overall system log e.g. journalctl --since=-15minutes, or journalctl -b (all logs from current boot). A coredump should not be too hard to find in the log, because journalctl highlights errors in red, also coredumpd tries to log a backtrace which will be several lines long. And to just list coredumps, use coredumpctl.
