From my experience it may depend on the hardware you use. For example, |
| 13 |
on one of my laptops suspending worked ootb, on the other I have to |
| 14 |
switch off the wake on lan functionality in bios (otherwise it wasn't |
| 15 |
even able to properly power off), while on my wife laptop it's pretty |
| 16 |
random thing - suspending work most the times, but sometimes it just |
| 17 |
not. If you have particular hw (like Sony Vaio laptops) there is a need |
| 18 |
to pass "acpi_sleep=nonvs" to the kernel to make it work. |
