And now I'm sad.

This was one of the reasons I never adopted Linux on a laptop. Power management simply never worked. I used Windows for many years on a ThinkPad with Linux in a VM but this felt dirty. Bought a Mac and life was good. Well it was until 10.13. 50% of wake up events I have to log in to a trashed desktop now.

It makes me long for a computer nailed to a bit of ethernet that is never turned off.

Edit: also I just went through hell trying to get a USB to serial converter working on OSX. Not exactly a crap one, a Keysight U1173B with Prolific chipset.



Are you connecting to an external monitor? Sleep Wake still works fine for me. The other thing is that I didn't import anything from backup. It's a clean install.


Nope just internal screen. This was a clean install too. On 2013 rMBP.


Using external displays, and half the time come back from sleep with most of my apps 95% off screen, it's annoying at best.
