OK, I tried that. Ctrl+Alt+F2 gives me a black screen.
Ctrl+Alt+F1 brings me back to my desktop.
Ctrl+Alt+F3-F6 all have a text login screen. F7+ don't do anything.
I was able to grab the journalctl logs. You can find them (and an extra bit about the computer state I was able to get) HERE.
I was able to make some progress in troubleshooting.
I went to the Screen Locking options and disabled "Lock after waking from sleep". Now I get to see the screen when I wake the computer back up, frozen as it was when I issued the sleep command.
All devices are disconnected - no network, no Bluetooth, no audio, all the “tray” icons are greyed out and/or showing errors, time is stopped at the moment I clicked the "Sleep" button.
Not sure if that helps at all.
Hmm... Wouldn't I also have sleep problems on Windows if this was a BIOS issue?

Windows worked flawlessly.
Kubuntu had massive issues with other things, but I didn't test Sleep (due to those other issues I only had it for a day or two).
Is “sleep” hibernate or suspend?
How can I tell the difference? The button says "Sleep". I don't see anything like "Power Settings" in System Settings.
Also, is this triggered by manually putting to sleep or by for example closing a laptop lid?
It's a PC, not a laptop. I click the "Sleep" button in the Application Launcher.
Just tried it now. Does it need a reboot first? As in: should I try again?
Sorry, mate, I'm a Linux noob.
I have no clue where to find the logs for this.
No idea what a VT is.
Don't know how to boot into single user mode....
Sorry, forgot to mention hardware! Added in an edit now!
I have a Ryzen 7 7800X3D and no dedicated GPU (yet).
I ran sudo update-grub after making the changes. That and rebooting a bunch of times since.
What is stopping you from playing Minecraft itself on Linux?
I wanted to try something new.
Ah, yes it does! Thank you! I had no idea what "aux_1" is and just pressing it didn't seem to do anything - just didn't think of pressing it while moving. Thanks!
I currently have no dedicated GPU, just a Ryzen CPU.
Tried that just now - doesn't work. It seems like all devices are disconnected so I can't use the keyboard to change the VT.
