Suspend causing system to hang on blinking terminal cursor.

After a system upgrade I lack the ability to suspend to ram. I've been working on it for several days, but I can't figure out why it's failing to suspend. The logs show no errors; here's my /var/log/pm-suspend.log

Initial commandline parameters:

And then it ends abruptly; I don't see anything wrong with it, but it's not working correctly.

Anyone have advice?

Re: Suspend causing system to hang on blinking terminal cursor.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pm … to_suspend

I know there is about unblinking cursor but the solution is right for ypur situation, you have to suspend some modules as it is described at wiki

Re: Suspend causing system to hang on blinking terminal cursor.

I've tried that fix as well as trying uswsusp and attempting to unload several modules before the suspend as described in the wiki.

Fresh from boot into root in a plain terminal fails the suspend as well. I might just end up re-installing Linux later.

Re: Suspend causing system to hang on blinking terminal cursor.

Update your system and reboot. Because earlier today there were updates to the linux package (the Linux kernel) and linux-headers (scripts for building modules).

Then try again.

Does this happen with the LTS kernel too?

I have made a personal commitment not to reply in topics that start with a lowercase letter. Proper grammar and punctuation is a sign of respect, and if you do not show any, you will NOT receive any help (at least not from me).

Re: Suspend causing system to hang on blinking terminal cursor.

I've updated and attempted to suspend with no dice, but the LTS kernel looks promising! I'll try it out when I get home from school.

Thanks for helping you guys.
