Inbuilt Keyboard is not working after going to sleep. Keyboard does not help wakeup

After installing garuda linux, I have seen that the inbuilt keyboard is not working to wake up the laptop from sleep.

No key is working to wake up the pc. I am forced to do the restart everytime it goes to sleep.

I have tried to see the bios settings, but no help in there. I even enabled the virtual keyborad. But I don’t think that helps.

I am newbie, and sorry if I don’t know something. Please help.

Open Garuda´s Rani and click on “Boot tools”.
In Options add
intel_idle.max_cstate=4
at the end of the line “Kernel paramaters”. Make sure to click “Apply” at bottom right. Close Rani and reboot.

EDIT:
@filo was faster :slightly_smiling_face:
