[Solved] How run a script on wake up?

[bester69]

Hi,

I need some help, I took a look at internet seeking for this, but I didnt find much very good information about it, I tried some proposals solutions but they didnt work at all, so I came here for some help of you, I know this mustn't be any difficult, so where and How do I have to go about setting thoses scripts in order to be launching on waking up or/and on suspending the system.


Thanks a lot.

Ways I can think of off the top of my head..
/lib/systemd/system-sleep - check man systemd-sleep
/usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d or /etc/pm - might or might not need pm-utils pkg
/etc/acpi - catch a lid or power event, probably some examples there already
use laptop-mode or some other power mgr, not too difficult.

If you post the script, or describe it, there might be a reason to use one or the other or none of the above.

If you state explicitly what you have already tried then it will stop people wasting your time by posting suggestions you have already attempted.

And without posting your exact method we have no way of knowing if you're doing it right.

Take a look at an example unit file I posted over at the ArchLabs forums, that runs when resuming from suspend or hibernate:

Ok, I found out the problem is, I was using pm-suspend for suspending system, so It cant trigger thes scripts by using pm-suspend.

The Solution was using systemctl suspend.:
>> systemctl suspend

Code: Select all

sudo tee /lib/systemd/system-sleep/wakeup_script <<'EOB'
#!/bin/sh
case $1 in

        #COMMANDS GO HERE
        ;;
esac
EOB

Thanks for your help.
