I can now confirm that this bug remains with the latest ASUS BIOS
update, to American Megatrends v: 3212 .

I appreciate that Ubuntu recommends that people not use hibernate
because there are too many things that could go wrong between diverse
hardware, BIOS, and the Ubuntu kernel and related. So I'm not surprised
that this bug has gotten no human feedback.

Still, this bug only appears in the latest Kubuntu kernel,
6.8.0-139-generic. I had no problem with hibernating daily, sometimes
for a week or longer, with kernel 6.8.0-138-generic all the way back to
kernel 6.8.0-87, almost a year ago. It seems likely that a solution
exists within easy reach of kernel engineers.

I will also say that for productive uses, hibernation makes a big
difference. It's the difference between starting each day exactly where
I left off the last day versus spending a good chunk of time fixing
where windows have been incorrectly placed by session manager, closing
windows / applications that should not have been opened, and opening a
bunch of applications that session manager fails to open. In short, the
difference between a smooth start of the day and unscrambling a mess. I
suspect I'm not the only person who works with many desktops,
applications, and windows open and wants to keep these open as I work on
various projects through the day.

Because I need hibernation, I am now stuck using 138 and hoping that it
does not leave a big security vulnerability and also that I won't have
to keep using an old kernel if future kernel updates do not fix the
hibernation problem.
