(solved) Suspend no longer works on Dell XPS13

[drooghead]

Hello all,
Sometime between yesterday and today suspend stopped working. When I shut the lid the computer immediately powers off. Not even a controlled shutdown. Suspend from the menu or the login screen also turns off the computer. It's not the new kernel because I tried the old ones and had the same problem. Something else in a recent upgrade broke this functionality.
Can anyone shed light on what the problem is?

Do you have a swap partitition, and is it being mounted at boot? Look at the output of

Code Select Expand

mount and try

Code Select Expand

swapon and

Code Select Expand

swapoff to see if it functioning correctly.

Thanks dibl,
Yes I have 12GB swap partition.
This is strange, I just did another apt upgrade and suspend is working again as it's
supposed to.
I suppose we can mark this as solved unless someone else has the same problem.
Thanks for your help. I hope I didn't waste too much of your time.


This is what I like about Siduction, we live on the edge but problems are fixed quickly.
