Yes. This is why I switched to simply hibernating, which has worked flawlessly for me. The shutdown and startup times are obviously a bit longer (it takes 10 seconds to get to the bootloader, after which its about 12 seconds to wake up), but since it's truly off, it can remain asleep indefinitely.


Do you have a link to a community thread or any other link on how to implement the hibernation? Right now, anytime I am closing the lid, the battery is draining out.


I just used the Arch wiki for basic setup:

I have my machine set to suspend on lid close and hibernate on power button.


Does it really take only 3 seconds to resume from hibernate? That seems implausibly fast, faster than S3 resume.


Nope! I absolutely lied!

Decided to actually time it.

It's 10 seconds from power button to grub bootloader, then 12 seconds from bootloader to login screen.

I decided to run the same test coming out of S3, and it takes 14 seconds on my macine to go from power button to login screen.

So waking from hibernation is roughly 8 seconds slower, or approximately the time it takes to get to grub.
