Can't come back from sleep using Nvidia's open kernel module

Hi! I have reinstalled OpenSUSE after a massive oopsie I’ve done. I have installed the Nvidia drivers and the open kernel modules using this guide from the wiki.

Everything was okay, until I put my laptop to sleep and came back. Coming back to it, the laptop would turn back on, but the GUI session would essentially never come back. I could break to a TTY, but every attempt to somehow restart the GUI session has failed, and frankly I don’t want to break to a TTY every time my laptop goes to sleep.

Perhaps I’ve done something and I didn’t realize what?

i have the same issue on pc. i just disabled sleep mode

actually i had one more problem, the sound in games sometimes just disappears and i need to re-open an application. i guess open module is not exactly fully ready, maybe its because its still 550

@winnyace have a read here https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/560.35.03/README/powermanagement.html

Perhaps the system sleeps states available and in use are not compatible.

As @ReLoneR I’m also on a desktop and have never used sleep/hibernate etc

I’ve solved the issue by changing to the closed kernel module.

The systemd services were enabled and working. The laptop would go to sleep and come back from it correctly, but loading SDDM after sleep, so I could log in the GUI session I had going, craps itself. Thus, I believe the issue is regarding Plasma/SDDM, not unavailable sleep states. Either way, I guess I managed to fix it now.

on gnome the gui session doesnt craps itself after sleep with the closed kernel module
