For me, unfortunately, the workaround does not help on an FSC Amilo Pa 1538 running Mint 17.1 (Ubuntu 14.04).
Instead, I created a file 50_async-disable in /etc/pm/sleep.d with the following contents (cf posts #5 and #8 to find out your device specification). This helps in my case. Don't forget the right permissions: chmod 755 50_async-disable #!/bin/sh case "$1" in suspend) echo disabled > /sys/devices/pci0000\:00/0000\:00\:0e.0/ata3/host2/target2\:0\:0/power/async ;; esac -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1065840 Title: Suspend wakes right back up Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: in xubuntu 12.10, attempting to suspend causes the machine to attempt to suspend, but the fans never go off and after about 30 seconds, the screen comes back on: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1065840/+attachment/3760398/+files/log To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1065840/+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
