Anyone else experiencing this bug might also want to test out the kernel that @kaihengfeng has kindly put together with the patch from Rafael. It's in his post (#35) but here's the link: https://people.canonical.com/~khfeng/lp1774950/
It'll be interesting to check that it fixes suspend issues for other folks too. The only thing I've noticed so far is that it makes a weird click sound through the speakers as it goes into suspend (probably when it switches them off) but that is a small price to pay for a working suspend function! - I downloaded all the files, put them in a folder called KernelFix and then opened up a terminal. I changed directory ( cd /Downloads/KernelFix ) and then used sudo dpkg -i to install them. - I'm fairly incompetent so tried sudo dpkg -i linux-image- unsigned-4.15.0-24-generic_4.15.0-24.26~lp1774950_amd64.deb first which told me I needed to install the modules. - I installed both module .debs using sudo dpkg -i and then installed the kernel again just to be sure. Anyway, that seems to have worked for me and I'm now running Kubuntu 18.04 with a 4.15 kernel and suspend works fine! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1774950 Title: Suspend fails in Ubuntu and Kubuntu 18.04 but works fine in Ubuntu and Kubuntu 17.10 (and on Kubuntu 18.04 using kernel 4.14.47) Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have installed Kubuntu 18.04 on 3 different machines (my friend's and my own) with no suspend problems but my HP Pavilion 11 x360 does not suspend. It suspends fine with Ubuntu 17.10, Kubuntu 17.10, Devuan Jesse, Devuan ASCII and Windows 10 but fails with Ubuntu 18.04 and Kubuntu 18.04. I have also tried suspend using a live USB of 18.04 on this machine and it fails in the same way, so does not appear to be caused by any additional programs that I had installed. By installing an older kernel (4.14) on Kubuntu 18.04 the suspend function works as expected. Running Kubuntu 18.04 with kernels 4.15, 4.16, 4.17 results in the suspend failure that freezes the machine and requires a hard reset. Correct behaviour is - Screen goes blank, fan goes off, power LED flashes to show machine is in suspend. Pressing power button triggers 'resume' function. What happens - Screen goes blank, fan stays on, power LED stays on. Machine stays in this state and does not respond to any keyboard interaction, mouse movement or power button presses. Ctrl + Alt + f1 (or f2, f3, f4 etc) does not get any response. The only way to use the machine is to shut down by holding down the power button. Checking the logs suggests that the machine believes it is in suspend mode sleep [deep] when it isn't. Having to hard reset to get any response means that the kernel logs say no more than sleep [deep] pm-suspend also results in the same problems with kernels 4.15 and 4.16, but works fine with 4.14. It is curious that a machine that suspends fine on an earlier 4.14 kernel no longer works with 4.15 and above, whilst 3 other machines (including one with pretty similar hardware) do not exhibit this problem. There are only a handful of questions about it on the forums but at least 3 other people have the same problem: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1029405/ubuntu-18-04-crashes-on- resuming-from-suspend https://askubuntu.com/questions/1041369/after-upgrading- from-17-10-ubuntu-18-04-wont-sleep-suspend I am attempting to round up anyone else with the same issue and point them to this bug report.
