Powertop and USB-Autosuspend

Issues & Assistance
1

Hey Guys,

first of all, sorry for my bad english. Because i’m german, but i will do my best, that you understand me.

I have an Asus ROG Strix G733ZW Laptop. An the machine it runs Windows 11 Pro and Garuda Linux KDE Dragonized Edition on Dualboot.

To control the fans under Garuda Linux i use asusctl and rog-control-center. Then i found powertop and in combination with the Asus stuff its the best total package for my laptop. The reason, that i mentioned, that i used the Asus stuff is, that tlp caused conflicts with asusctl and that means, that i can’t use tlp for configuring the USB-Autosuspend options.

But i have one more or less problem: after every reboot my USB-Mouse stucks and i can’t move the cursor over the screen. Only if i click, then the mouse works. But after 2 or 3 seconds if i do nothing, the mouse freeze again. The only workround until then for me is to plug the mouse in an another USB-Port. But this can’t be the solution for that.

Can anybody tell me, how i can disable the USB-autosuspend feature only for the USB-Port which the mouse is pluged?

Many thanks for your help and best regards from Germany.

Sorry for the circumstances, but i don’t know what do you mean with this part here.

Run the command in your terminal:

cat /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/autosuspend

Then, when you are posting it here on the forums to us, surround the output with ~~~ at the top and ~~~ at the bottom.

So, here is the Output:

Maybe you could give a look at this:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_management#USB_autosuspend
And, if necesary, e.g. to retrieve vendor, product, etc. of the device to be blacklisted, at this:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Udev#Waking_from_suspend_with_USB_device
(or maybe just changing autosuspend to 0 would disable autosuspend. Edit: to do this, you could try adding the kernel boot parameter usbcore.autosuspend=-1, but I believe the udev rule is a cleaner solution)

Thanks again for all your input.
The kernel boot parameter did the trick for me.
The udev rule doesn’t work.

For the udev rule i did the following steps.

lsusb | grep Mouse

Output for this command:

Bus 003 Device 003: ID 1bcf:0005 Sunplus Innovation Technology Inc. Optical Mouse

grep 0005 /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/idProduct

Output here was:

/sys/bus/usb/devices/3-6/idProduct:0005

So, for my understanding the udev rule must look as follows:

in

/etc/udev/rules.d/50-wake-on-device.rules

i copy this one here

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", DRIVERS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="1bcf", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0005", ATTR{power/wakeup}="enabled", ATTR{driver/3-6/power/wakeup}="enabled"

than reboot.

When if the rule is right, then this don’t work.
