Put macbook to sleep, but next startup went to white screen w/ logo - long load

[junoreactor]

Hey man,
I did the menu button -> Sleep.
Closed the lid.
...
In the morning, I come back, and I see that the power indicator lights show that it had at least 50% juice still in there.
Yet powering on resulted in the white-screen apple-logo page, with a long... long... startup. Much longer than usual.

What's going on there? How'd it shutdown like that? It wasnt power loss.
Kernel panic? What do you think?

Please provide Mac model and year along with version macOS installed.

Stand-by mode… although I’m surprised pmset didn’t return a “hibernatemode” entry in output.

Ah, late-2011. 10.14.6

"late-2011. 10.14.6"

Next question:
What SIZE is the display?

If it's 15" or 17", you had better learn about "RadeonGate".

That's a failure of the discrete GPU, not really "fixable".
If you find that to be the case, it's time to start looking for a replacement.

 

[junoreactor]

Ah thankfully it's the 13". (I believe "MacBookPro8,1" indicates that)
Turning on verbose boot shows stalls with these messages:

bcm5701UserClient::terminate ..
busy[n] timout(60s) MCHC

Something along those lines.

Looking at kernel extensions...

This might be part of the issue. I definetely set hibernate mode to "25" or something before. So now, the key entry is completely missing, that's odd... and maybe that has something to do with the odd behavior.

 

[junoreactor]

And even trying to add it using "sudo pmset -a hibernatemode X" doesn't actually change anything.
Maybe I'll ask the Apple forums.
They'll probably tell me to go the Genius Bar™

bump

 

[junoreactor]

I saw a thread where other users were having weird missing hibernatemode keys, yet when they created a new user, it was fine for that new user. So something happened...

 

[junoreactor]

I want my hibernatemode!

 

[junoreactor]

where'd it go

 

[JustAnExpat]

I had a MacBook Air, 13" ,2017. For some reason hibernation mode would never work after I updated MacOS to the latest version. I ended up turning it off at night.
