Thinkpad E585 - Suspend problems

Newbie Corner
#1

Hi there,

I got this problem where my laptop more often then not doesn't come back from suspend. The screen just stays black and cutting the power is the only way to the machine going again. It's not always the case and I have not been able to reproduce it consistently. I am a bit clueless how to troubleshoot this. My specs:

Yep, same here with the same APU. I've tried several things, but none of them worked reliably. What has worked the best is unplugging my Logitech Unifying Receiver for my MX Anywhere 2S mouse before closing the lid.

Maybe it’s better to have it hibernate instead of suspend. Does anyone have a good tutorial on how to set this up? I’ve seen some that requires messing with grub. Which looks scary :upside_down_face:
