Description Morgan Leijström 2014-12-18 09:36:32 CET
Hibernation and suspend seem to come and go forever
 - we need good info on how to debug.

I tried to follow
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Triage_guide#Suspend.2FHibernate_issues
to debug hibernation, but it seems it really need to be updated.

1) it say to run 
  service dm stop
which nowadays redirects to the new services on cauldron, and i guess the same is true on mga4 , so it should state only the modern method.

2) the instruction to execute "pm-{suspend,hibernate}" is not very readable for other people than programmers.
besides, pm-hibernate do nothing, and pm-suspend hangs my system, while using normal methods suspend works perfectly, and hibernation hangs.

I suggest someone that knows hibernation and suspend mechanism updates and extends the information here.

Sidenote: the bug on my laptop where hibernation hangs and i have no idea what or how to provide some useful info: Bug 14392

Well, there is good documentation about this. As starting point, check e.g. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Power_management#Power_management_with_systemd

And as it's a wiki, feel free to update and edit it if you think it should be improved.

FWIW, hibernation and suspend works fine here out-of the box using KDE and Mageia 4.1.

Maybe it is better to collaborate with Arch on their wiki, and on mageia wiki link there plus explain any differences to mageia.

I will try using arch wiki in weekend

( Our T43 thinkpads both hibernation and suspend works on cauldron, on T60 & T61p only suspend.  Neither hibernation not suspend worked on T6* using mga3 or 4 so I ran fedora there for a while, until there were problems with it there... )

For Thinkpad-specific issues have a look at http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkWiki
Comment 4 Morgan Leijström 2018-03-20 10:46:21 CET
I see the wiki have been updated since, and includes the external links above.
Good enough :)
