I have created bug 1436620. It's a bit of a messy situation but I hope I described it well enough.

Doing it manually also fails, and nothing appears in dmesg: #echo "mem" > /sys/power/state Error while writing to stdout write_loop: Invalid argument And, more interestingly: cat /sys/power/state freeze disk Using the not-so-good-and-apparently-unsupported: echo "freeze" > /sys/power/state does seem to successfully suspend, however I cannot resume from this (assumed to be a separate issue). I am using a modified utopic unicorn kernel compiled from git at kernel.ubuntu.com, with the following patch to enable mykeyboard to work: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-input/msg34918.html The official kernel behaves identically, as does vanilla 3.17 from the mainline folder of kernel-ppa. WORKAROUND: Use hibernate. --- ApportVersion: 2.14.7-0ubuntu5 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC1: jarrad 2491 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: jarrad 2491 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: XFCE DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.10 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=178ac532-25db-4ef3-a587-f1fdd2649bf0 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-10-10 (57 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.10 "Utopic Unicorn" - Alpha amd64 (20140923) MachineType: Microsoft Corporation Surface Pro 3 Package: linux (not installed) ProcFB: 0 inteldrmfb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.16.4-surface3 root=UUID=f6c17817-9127-4792-be23-a39a07e7f240 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.16.0-21.28-generic 3.16.4 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-3.16.4-surface3 N/A linux-backports-modules-3.16.4-surface3 N/A linux-firmware 1.135 Tags: utopic Uname: Linux 3.16.4-surface3 x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True dmi.bios.date: 10/16/2014 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: 3.11.0350 dmi.board.asset.tag: 0 dmi.board.name: Surface Pro 3 dmi.board.vendor: Microsoft Corporation dmi.board.version: 1 dmi.chassis.asset.tag: 0 dmi.chassis.type: 9 dmi.chassis.vendor: Microsoft Corporation dmi.chassis.version: 1 dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvr3.11.0350:bd10/16/2014:svnMicrosoftCorporation:pnSurfacePro3:pvr1:rvnMicrosoftCorporation:rnSurfacePro3:rvr1:cvnMicrosoftCorporation:ct9:cvr1: dmi.product.name: Surface Pro 3 dmi.product.version: 1 dmi.sys.vendor: Microsoft Corporation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1380076/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
