To disable USB autosuspend on Manjaro Linux, you can use the tlp
utility, which is a power management tool commonly used on laptops and other devices running Linux. Here’s how you can do it:
- Install TLP (if not already installed):
Open a terminal and run the following command to install TLP:sudo pacman -Sy tlp
- Edit TLP configuration file:
Open the TLP configuration file using a text editor. You can use any text editor you prefer. For example, you can use nano:sudo nano /etc/default/tlp
- Modify USB autosuspend settings:
Look for the following lines in the configuration file:USB_AUTOSUSPEND=1
Change the value from1
to0
to disable USB autosuspend:USB_AUTOSUSPEND=0
Save the changes and exit the text editor. - Restart TLP:
After making the changes, you need to restart the TLP service for the changes to take effect. Run the following command:sudo systemctl restart tlp
After following these steps, USB autosuspend should be disabled on your Manjaro Linux system. This should help prevent USB devices, including your USB Ethernet adapter, from entering a low-power state and experiencing intermittent disconnections.
