Hi,

I have installed Elementary OS on my Acer Aspire 5738z laptop. In order to get it to suspend / hibernate, I have installed uswsusp. Now
$ sudo s2disk
puts the laptop to hibernation, however, it doesn't resume properly. I get the Elementary splash screen with the message -

Resuming from /dev/disk/by-uuid/25bb6eec-ad03-49f7-9815-2a89a22a1fb2

and that is it. I don't get my desktop back. I finally discovered that by pressing Alt+PrtSc+R+E, I am able to get the desktop back. Any idea as to how I can solve the problem ?
Thanking in advance,

What's the output of "dmesg | grep Kernel"

Maybe also posting the output of "cat /var/log/messages | grep resume" would help.

Hi,
Thanks for the prompt reply! However -

Quote:

$ dmesg | grep Kernel

doesn't give any output.

Quote:

$ cat /var/log/messages | grep resume

returns "No file or directory"! So I thought maybe

Quote:

$ dmesg | grep resume

could give some clues. I am attaching the output herewith.
