Here's an excerpt of what was put out: ---- uint32 0 error time=1508114297.985967 sender=:1.0 -> destination=:1.1 error_name=org.freedesktop.systemd1.UnitMasked reply_serial=26352 string "Unit suspend.target is masked." signal time=1508114297.986032 sender=:1.0 -> destination=(null destination) serial=52814 path=/org/freedesktop/systemd1; interface=org.freedesktop.systemd1.Manager; member=UnitNew string "suspend.target" object path "/org/freedesktop/systemd1/unit/suspend_2etarget" signal time=1508114297.986058 sender=:1.0 -> destination=(null destination) serial=52815 path=/org/freedesktop/systemd1; interface=org.freedesktop.systemd1.Manager; member=UnitRemoved string "suspend.target" object path "/org/freedesktop/systemd1/unit/suspend_2etarget" signal time=1508114297.991185 sender=:1.1 -> destination=(null destination) serial=26353 path=/org/freedesktop/login1; interface=org.freedesktop.login1.Manager; member=PrepareForSleep boolean true method call time=1508114297.992516 sender=:1.1 -> destination=org.freedesktop.systemd1 serial=26354 path=/org/freedesktop/systemd1; interface=org.freedesktop.systemd1.Manager; member=StartUnit string "suspend.target" string "replace-irreversibly" method call time=1508114297.993237 sender=:1.0 -> destination=org.freedesktop.DBus serial=52816 path=/org/freedesktop/DBus; interface=org.freedesktop.DBus; member=GetConnectionUnixUser string ":1.1" method return time=1508114297.993292 sender=org.freedesktop.DBus -> destination=:1.0 serial=13188 reply_serial=52816 ---- If I'm understanding this correctly, it looks like it's trying to suspend but is somehow getting confused...
