Now that it is deactivated, the machine no longer suspends!

I refuse. I can explain. I tried lots of capture cards that stated they 
support uvcvideo and linux.
This problem existed prior and I need it for work on this machine.
But none of them worked reliably or would straight up glitch out.
Thats because they do not implement it properly.

It had to be a product from Magewell, who manage an array of bash 
scripts and the AUR maintainer gets updates if something breaks, too. 
Why do I use a PCIe HDMI Capture Card?
I need to use Cameras and Displays.

As for USB Cameras, unless its a product from e.g Logitech, they kept 
giving me similar headaches.
And that included an older setup that ran a Intel i7 8700K as well.

Thx.
