I noticed that suspend to RAM stopped working in liquorix 5.1.0-9.
It worked fine in 5.1.0-8 and all previous liquorix builds and kernel versions.

When trying to suspend to RAM the screen turns black and after a second it is on again.
Computer doesn't even stop for a moment during this.
Looks like the DE knows it should handle suspend, but the suspend doesn't actually happen.

Calling
:: Code ::
sudo /usr/sbin/pm-suspend
directly doesn't work either.

Anyone has similar issues? Or is it just my (quite old) laptop?

It looks like to me that some release candidate patches are causing problems with your GPU configuration with nouveau:

:: Code ::
drm-nouveau-disp-dp-respect-sink-limits-when-selecti.patch
drm-nouveau-fix-duplication-of-nv50_head_atom-struct.patch
drm-nouveau-kms-gf119-gp10x-push-headsetcontroloutpu.patch
drm-nouveau-kms-gv100-fix-spurious-window-immediate-.patch


Have you tried running nvidia's proprietary drivers? I know your GPU is considered legacy by nvidia, but it might have better behavior with suspend.

I have blacklisted the nouveau driver, but the issue still occurs. Same symptoms.

Hmm, well there is one thing I'll change immediately. I was pretty sure I removed this section from the kernel cmdline options but xconfig didn't persist the change to the filesystem:

:: Code ::
rcupdate.rcu_expedited=1 rcu_nocbs=0-64


A new release will be out in a few hours for you to try. I don't think it will help but it's definitely _not_ helping.

I've updated to 5.1.0-9.3, but as you predicted, this didn't affect this problem.

There is also another issue I have with all releases of 5.1.0-9.x on every one of my 3 computers (specs below).
On reboot/halt they reach the end of the procedure:
:: Code ::
...
[ OK ] Reached target Shutdown.
[ OK ] Reached target Final Step.
[ OK ] Started Reboot.
[ OK ] Reached target Reboot.
and then wait for 180 seconds.
Then another message appears:
:: Code ::
[5548]: Failed to unmount /var: Device or resource busy
and computer reboots/halts.
With 5.1.0-8 and previous this never happened.

I can confirm this issue with Ubuntu 19.04 on a Thinkpad T460s. I'm not able to do a clean shut-down either. The process freezes at end of shut-down and I have cycle with power button.

phd, cdsythe, thanks for the feedback.

I just got done reverting all the 5.1.10 release candidate patches and a new release should be up in the next 2-3 hours.

When the next official update comes out, I'll look for any indication that the offending patch causing suspend / shutdown bugs was removed / reverted before updating Liquorix. Worst case, it'll be up to 2 weeks before we see reports in kernel.org's bugzilla or LKML.

5.1.0-9.4 halts/restarts properly.
Also the hibernation problem is fixed.

Thanks!
