In Linux Mint 18.3 my USB wireless mouse and keyboard fall asleep after a while.
I have found the post of the gentleman who had the same problem and he wrote that he disconnects the wireless dongle and reconnect it.
What I want is to find is where are the USB controls in Linux Mint 18.3 and how to prevent the USB ports from falling asleep.
Is there something in LM 18.3 that permits that?
Does anyone knows an incantation that starts with sudo or bash that could do the trick?

Just copy paste the following command in terminal and it will Disable USB autosuspend
echo on | sudo tee /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/level >/dev/null
hope that helps

BTW Lord Boltar, is the above terminal command something to be done only once and the fix is permanent, or do I have to execute it in terminal each time I boot?Lord Boltar wrote: ⤴Mon Jul 16, 2018 8:54 pm Just copy paste the following command in terminal and it will Disable USB autosuspend
