Hmm, in a somewhat disheartening turn of events, I thought I'd try installing the nvidia proprietary driver on my workstation (that's what I had installed on 16.04, when suspend/resume worked). ...And now, suspend/resume works perfectly (and quickly) on the workstation. So maybe this is a nouveau

This is still a problem in bionic as well. I just did a clean install on a workstation which exhibits the problem, but I also have a laptop which was upgraded from 17.10, which has not ever exhibited the problem. I've attached lshw output for the two machines (inara is the machine for which suspe

The realtek driver in the rtlwifi_new repository appears to fix the problem. I built the driver and installed it, and now have apparently normal network connectivity. git clone http://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new.git cd rtlwifi_new make sudo modprobe -rv rtl8188ee sudo make install

OK, after spending hours attempting to upgrade the BIOS on this pile of crap laptop, I give up. Apparently, the only way it's possible is if I'd not installed Linux on it, and still had the original w8 partition to boot from. In any case, given that the only thing "fixed" in the new firmware vers
