Package: pm-utils Version: 1.4.1-8 Severity: normal On an Asus U35JC, using pm-suspend does not cause the laptop to enter a suspended state. The system drops to the console with a blinking cursor, but that's all. The system fans continue to spin, as if CPU activity were high, and all relevant LEDs remain as before. Attempting to resume does nothing, and the system is totally hung.
In order to get suspend to work I had to use the following script in /etc/pm/sleep.d, found at at <http://robbyx.net/blog/?p=190>: #!/bin/sh BUSES="0000:00:1a.0 0000:00:1d.0" case "${1}" in hibernate|suspend) # Switch USB buses off for bus in $BUSES; do echo -n $bus | tee /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ehci_hcd/unbind done ;; resume|thaw) # Switch USB buses back on for bus in $BUSES; do echo -n $bus | tee /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ehci_hcd/bind done ;; esac The hardcoded $BUSES worked for my hardware. I don't know if this is really a bug, or if it should be reported against this package or the kernel package, but maybe this information will help someone. For the record, pm-hibernate had the same issue that it would not shut down the system, but when booting up again after hard poweroff it would resume from hibernation without any problem.
