With 4.4 and 4.5, suspend is broken in some odd way. The machine will suspend once. When I suspend again, it will crash during resume. This might be because of a weird grub2 issue where grub will select the second entry (advanced options) and then the second entry in that menu.
Do you mean suspend to RAM (which is usually implied by using unqualified "suspend") Which, once again, brings up the issue of how much RAM
If Hibernate didn't have enough swap, I'd expect it to abort with a useful error message instead of crashing and ruining my data.
or suspend to disk (which is normally called "hibernation" to disambiguate it)? Which brings up the issue of (a) swap space. How is that configured? Is it a real/primary partition or not; and (b) how much of this is dealt with at the user/application level and how much at the kernel level?
Hibernate worked flawlessly with the stock 3.x kernels that come with 13.2. Recently, I switched to 4.x to fix issues with USB3 and the NVIDIA driver installer. I think the main point is that I'm very happy with Linux and openSUSE overall. I've made it my main OS some 15 years ago and I didn't regret it (often) since. But there are a few points (hibernate, power management, 3D drivers, USB3) where I feel pain. All these areas are notoriously complex. Developers in those areas are more developers rather than users ("useful error messages? who needs that??? It's fun to run blindly in the dark!"). It's so incredibly frustrating, especially when you're me (https://stackoverflow.com/users/34088/aaron-digulla) Regards, -- Aaron "Optimizer" Digulla a.k.a.
