Suspend doesn't work on asus g51j

mikehershey · 2010-12-10 02:54:03

I've used Google quite a bit but none of the fixes that I've found seem to work. When I suspend my computer (from gnome or running `pm-suspend --quirk-vbe-post --quirk-vbemode-restore --quirk-vbestate-restore` (as a post suggested) or just pm-suspend) The laptop goes down to a black screen with a blinking cursor in the corner and stays there indefinitely.

Here's my pm-suspend log:

Initial commandline parameters: --quirk-vbe-post
--quirk-vbemode-restore
--quirk-vbestate-restore

There are quite a few troubleshooting options here:

Personally my Dell M101z will only s2ram with the noapic kernel option.
