Well, here's the deal. I was running 13.10 and I never had any problem with it. But I did not use suspend nor did I use hibernate. I either had a fully up and running system or I shut it down cold. I never had any reason to want to use suspend or hibernate.
Then I upgraded to 14.04 and immediately I start having two problems, the first being that the system would suspend itself after 1 minute if I did not log in at the GDM prompt, and the second being that if I attempted to awaken the system from suspend it would never wake up (no keyboard, no mouse, no network). As far as priority goes, I would prefer that the first problem were solved. I would not care in the least that the system would never wake up after suspend if the system wouldn't suspend in the first place. In fact, it's the fact that the system suspends itself even though I don't want it to that is the real source of headache for me. The fact it never wakes up is fixable with a hard power off and reboot and log in immediately upon GDM. The fact it suspends is not fixable, because if the power goes out and I'm not home and it reboots and I don't log in (because I'm not home) then the system suspends and it's not usable from my remote location. Which sucks big green... well, you get the picture. So when it comes right down to it, I'd rather efforts were put toward figuring out how I can configure my machine not to suspend in the first place. Which is the other bug, not this one. -- 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/1393013 Title: [Dell Dimension E521] Computer hangs when resuming after suspend Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When my computer suspends, it will never fully wake back up. When I press the power button to resume, the computer appears to start waking up, but the monitor and keyboard are never reactivated and I cannot log in from another system (I have ssh access enabled but the system does not respond). If I wait long enough (5 minutes or so), the system will start gradually screaming, as if it's using max CPU and the fan is responding in kind by cranking up to max. But still, no matter how long I wait (and how much noise is emitted and power consumed), the system never fully resumes after suspend. I have to push and hold the power button to force power off and then reboot.
