[SOLVED] systemctl suspend does only work once

Hi guys,

I'm a little desperate. I have searched for my problem for weeks now and did not
find a solution. I have the following problem:
If I run the following command

sudo systemctl suspend

after boot, my Laptop suspends and resumes as it should. If I run this command for the
second time I get the following error message:

A dependency job for suspend.target failed. See 'journalctl -xn' for
details.

# sudo journalctl -xn

I have no idea what this means and what I have to do to solve this problem.
Furthermore it is worth mentioning if I suspend my Laptop (as mentioned above) the shutdown
fails with the following error:

watchdog watchdog0: watchdog did not stop!
Cannot finalize remaining file systems and devices. giving up.
INFO: task kworker/0:2:271 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
Tainted: G       0 3.12.3-1-ARCH #1
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disable this message.

Now I have to use the power button to turn off my Laptop. There must be a relation
because this does not happen if I do not suspend it during runtime.
Can you help me please?

Best regards

Hi guys,

does really no one have the same problem or an idea how to solve my problem? Or an idea how to debug the suspend command?
I would be appreciated for every kind of hint.

Best regards.

Re: [SOLVED] systemctl suspend does only work once

I am very unsure if this will fix YOUR issues, but all my suspend/hibernate issues on my laptop got fixed when I switched from linux to linux-lts kernel. I highly reccomend it if you have no specific need for the repo kernel. If you do this, don't forget to change nvidia to nividia-lts and all relevant packages also. There aren't THAT many I believe.

Thank you so much. Yeah upgrading my kernel to linux-lts solved my problem.
