Quickly Disable Broadcast Messages on Debian 12
Published at Apr 14, 2023
TL;DR
Sometimes when you do a lot of maintenance on Linux systems, you will see weir broadcasting messages. These messages can interfere with your work. In this blog post, I provide a quick fix for them.
If you ever see a message like this:
Broadcast message from
name@host (Thu 2023-12-07 11:48:38 CET):
The system will suspend now!I got your back!
The Solution
Create
sudo nano /etc/systemd/sleep.conf.d/nosuspend.confInsert
[Sleep]
AllowSuspend=no
AllowHibernation=no
AllowSuspendThenHibernate=no
AllowHybridSleep=no
And the common
sudo systemctl daemon-reload… Aaaand it’s gone.
