Systemd hibernation is killing me

view story
linux-howto

http://www.unix.com – I'm on Arch and I have a strange issue with systemctl hibernate command. It hibernates and resumes just fine (I have TuxOnIce), but in the last stage of resume, it completely shuts down my laptop screen, so I cannot see anything even though I know the system resumed just fined and the desktop is running. I can even hear the music files being played that were left playing during hibernation. If I hibernate using sudo hibernate -F /etc/hibernate/tuxonice.conf the system hibernates and resumes in the same way, except the screen does not get turned off upon resume (but there are other issue (HowTos)

Stories similar to Systemd hibernation is killing me

I'm using a KDE Ubuntu based distro (Linux Maya 13 KDE edition). I have installed tuxonice and if I execute this from the command line:

sudo hibernate

then it hibernates and resumes very quickly. If I try to do it from the KDE GUI, it just locks my desktop and nothing else.

TuxOnIce won't resume 31 weeks 1 day ago

I'm trying to setup hibernate on my new rig, and I've gotten tuxonice working a few times, but then I had a failed hibernate, and sense then, I can't resume from a hibernate. TuxOnIce has the loading bar, and the text interface, and successfully brings the computer into hibernate. However when resuming from hibernate, the screen stays black, then displays random pixels everywhere, and hangs.

Black screen after pm-suspend 40 weeks 17 hours ago

I was able to get the pm-hibernate (suspend-to-disk) functionality working by following the wiki . . . .

Hi, Initially hibernate/resume was working fine. But now system hibernate but doesn't resume, instead it boot-up normally.

My system is able to resume from suspend only after I've let it hibernate:scratch:.

When I do a fresh boot and suspend the system just after the desktop started, resuming will result in a black screen and I had to power off the computer (see pm-suspend-kde-fail.log).

Since switching to Karmic, suspend and hibernate are not working consistently on my Toshiba Satellite. I have it set to hibernate when I close the lid, but doing so only turns off the screen. The suspend and hibernate keys on my keyboard also no longer work. When I select these options from the menu, the computer will suspend or hibernate properly.

I'm running ubuntu 11.10 on a dell laptop and after 3-4 hibernation cycles (switch off-resume) I can no longer hibernate because there is not enough free memory in the swap partition.

When my laptop hibernates, is there a way to choose NOT to resume, but just to start fresh? Is there a way to put this on the boot menu?

I ask, because my laptop takes FOREVER (~10 minutes) to resume from hibernate under Ubuntu, so I don't usually hibernate it intentionally, but it will if it runs out of power.
