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 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.target
Then I ran
sudo systemctl enable --now disable-mouse-wakeup
It works perfectly on my AMD machine.
Run
cat /proc/acpi/wakeup
and try some of the other devices instead of XHC0 if they are enabledEdit: Remember to run
sudo systemctl stop disable-mouse-wakeup
to 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:00
I 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:0000:00:14.0
I didn't test LID0 or Powerbutton.
Those wakelock devices map to specific devices. If you run
lsusb
you will see thepci:0000:00:1c.4
and others.- Find the one that your mouse is.
- Do the echo command into that device
RP05
. - Confirm it's disabled.
- suspend & then try moving the mouse
- if it works edit the systemd script with the correct echo command
- make sure you make the service Enabled (otherwise it won't start on boot)
- reboot and confirm it's still disabled.
That should be what is needed to disable waking up from the mouse.
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.
