From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Ok so it's not on the OS level. Might be a wake setting in the bios. Allow wake from USB might fix it.

Power management requires coordination between vendor firmware and linux, so new kernels may require updated vendor firmware. The ACPI open standard tells linux how to discover and configure the hardware. Some vendors support acpi_osi=linux on the kernel command line, others may need system-dependent entries.

That's all I got sorry. Good luck
