Thank you for your reply though! > > Moe > Found the issue, on a hunch and after reading https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/460126 I temporarily removed the 99hd-apm-restore.hook file from /var/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/ . This not only makes suspend a lot faster but also makes the harddrive spin down. If I execute the script with ./99hd-apm-restore.hook it takes up to 10 sec and I get the following output: ./99hd-apm-restore.hook: rad 17: : Filen eller katalogen finns inte saving level 128 for device sda ./99hd-apm-restore.hook: rad 48: savestate: kommandot finns inte HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(identify) failed: Invalid exchange Advanced Power Management not supported by device sdb. Sorry about the swedish output, "Filen eller katalogen finns inte" means File or folder not found and "kommandot finns inte" means command not found I am guessing this is a bug in the script and a missing dependency in pm-utils. However, I have no idea on how to proceed and where to file the bug report. Help appreciated.
