Suspend fails (reboot on resume) and no hibernate option

If the solution below does not work for you, try this one:

  • Edit the file /etc/default/grub (as root)
  • Change the line with:

    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
    

    to:

    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi_sleep=nonvs"
    
  • run update-grub (as root)

Worked for me... Hope this can help you!


I've solved a similar issue (reboot on resume) with a Sony Vaio VGN-FW51ZF by changing the last line of the file /etc/acpi/sleep.sh from pm-suspend to pm-suspend --quirk-radeon-off (guess it was a problem related with ATI proprietary drivers).

Hope this can help you!
