Hm, the log doesn't show any delay. [ 117.356037] PM: suspend of devices complete after 476.643 msecs [ 117.357049] PM: late suspend of devices complete after 1.008 msecs At this point the suspend finished. Then it resumes: [ 117.358077] pcieport 0000:00:15.1: System wakeup enabled by ACPI [ 117.358447] ehci-pci 0000:00:13.2: System wakeup enabled by ACPI .... [ 118.397519] Restarting tasks ... done. At this point, user-space is already woken up. So it took less than a second. And, the next (and the last) log shows that the system is up, the Ethernet detected: [ 120.361383] r8169 0000:04:00.0 eth0: link up That said, from the kernel POV, everything looks good.
