I always thought it would be wiser if suspend also did the RAM dump to drive, so that when the computer was woken up, it would first try to resume from RAM, then try to resume from storage, finally cold booting if the other options weren't do-able. As general debugging advice, you'd want to look at the system logs to see what it says it's doing as it suspends/shuts-down. Your hardware has to support suspend mode, in that it has to supply standby power continuously. There are/were BIOS settings about that on some computers. If your PC is one that requires enabling it in the BIOS, and you haven't changed BIOS settings, it might suggest that the CMOS battery might need replacing. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages posted to the mailing list.
