Lucky (or unlucky) me, I intensified usage by opening and closing the lid and connecting/disconnecting the power plug and the bug was triggered with 3.17.1. The behaviour that seems to trigger it / the last activities were: * leave Thunderbird and Skype running to have some disk activity going * have a Skype conversation on battery power * close the lid * connect the power supply * open the lid * check emails or do something else that causes disk access
unfortunately I did not have a web browser session running and I cannot start a browser to copy & paste from the dmesg and any attempt to start software results in errors. opening a new terminal tab: Segmentation fault /usr/bin/lesspipe: 295: [: =: unexpected operation the dmesg log is too long to manually retype from screen, some of the suspicious message: [57788.185182] ata4.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x3000 SErr 0x40000 action 0x6 frozen [57788.185187] ata4: SError: { CommWake } [57788.185190] ata4.00: failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED [57788.185193] ata4.00: cmd 60/10:60:50:41:d6/00:00:08:00:00/40 tag 12 ncq 8192 in [57788.185193] res 40/00:01:30:08:00/00:00:00:00:00/e0 Emask 0x4 (timeout) ...

Installed Xubuntu 14.04LTS from scratch. Now the system is unstable. To reproduce: * boot up * close the laptop lid * reopen the lid * try to access files * repeat Usually, after closing the laptop's lid, the system will correctly go to sleep. Sometimes the system is OK after reopening the lid, but eventually and consistently, after a few cycles, reopening the lid turns the screen back on but every command fails. Disks and USB keys give buffer I/O errors, the system is unstable and I am left with no other option than to long-press the power button and lose work.
