Machine Locks Up When Hibernating / Suspend

linux-howto

http://www.linuxquestions.org – I've removed Windows 7 from my Dell Latitude E6500 laptop & installed Ubuntu 10.10 which worked great out of the box but when I shut the laptop lid, the machine goes to sleep but when I try to use it again, I can't wake the laptop up from sleep. I can see the illuminated keyboard light up but I have to manually hold the power button down to shut it down and start it back up again from scratch. Can someone please tell me how to get this working like it did in Windows 7 or at least get the machine up & running. (HowTos)

Stories similar to Machine Locks Up When Hibernating / Suspend

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04, and my laptop* won't wake from sleep/suspend/hibernate. (Is sleep the same thing as suspend?) I'm not even sure which of these things it's doing. When I am done working for the day, I lock my screen (Control-Alt-L).

Sometimes (about 1 out of every 10 times) when I put my laptop to sleep, it will come back on but the would only contain my mouse cursor (which I can move around) and nothing else, just a sort of very tiny checkboard/dots background, and it will stay that way until I manually shut off the computer and turn it back on.

Hi everyone.

I have a Dell Latitude 620 laptop, using Lubuntu 12.10 (it's great!), and I want to be able to wake my computer from suspend using a USB keyboard or mouse. Right now it does not--not even the laptop's built in keyboard or mouse wakes up the machine.

I checked the BIOS and wake from USB was disabled.

I have a SAMSUNG laptop, which by the experience in the last months, has been a great one. I am actually implementing some functionality to it, and since I noticed, I am able to wake up my laptop from sleep by just opening the lid on Windows 7, however, I need to press to power button to wake up in Ubuntu.

I don't know if this is a bug or not so I am not sure how to proceed. :confused:

I run Fedora Linux 3.6.7-5.fc18.i686 with the KDE desktop v 4.9.3.

In 'System Settings' - 'Power Management' - 'AC Power', 'Button events handling'; I have it set to 'sleep' when the laptop lid is closed and it does this OK.

I recently installed Ubuntu 12.04 on my Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo Mobile v5505 with the following configuration:

Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T5750 2.00GHz Graphics cardc(integrated): Intel 965GM x86/MMX/SSE2

Other things pretty much standard.

Now after putting my laptop to sleep (by closing the lid) or hibernating, when I wake it up (by opening the lid) four things happen:

I shut the lid on my Toshiba and go to sleep. I come back in the morning and it won't wake back up. It seems like I can put it to sleep for less than 2 hours. After that, I'll have to do a hard reboot to do anything. It doesn't seem to happen If I have VLC running. Any advice?

Here is the problem : I have a Logitech webcame which is working fine with my ubuntu machine, the only problem is that every time I turn my laptop to sleep and wake it up again, the webcam doesn't work any more.
