My #Debian / #Gnome laptop is having serious trouble waking up. It's been getting worse over the last few days. The only thing that makes it wake up at this point is plugging an external monitor into it. Next chance I get, I'll disable all the extensions and see if the problem persists and then trouble shoot them all individually (sigh).

Any other suggestions?

@OrionKidder Download `powertop` `sudo apt install powertop`. Then check the last tab 'WakeUp", make sure what you want to wake with is enabled. `lsusb` to see what each device is in more detail.

It'll tell you, but it just modifies a file in /sys/ to allow it to wake the system.
