sleep and hibernate work fine on linux. I remember the olden days like 15 years ago where nothing of it worked. contrary to the stupid macos that was forced onto me which sleep means nothing and just keeps draining my bluetooth headphones battery anyway instead of turning off when I tell it to.
I still have issues on two separate machines. One won't hibernate sometimes, I suspect the nvidia card. The other has a new-ish ethernet card, which doesn't work after waking from hibernation (unless I reload the kernel module)
What's the point of hibernation? You have so much stuff open in some exact state you can't just turn off the computer?
It takes less time for me to boot fresh than to resume from hibernation (32GB of RAM)
Yes. I leave my laptop running in the office overnight, and at the end of the day I have a bunch of note documents, papers, code editors, and corresponding plots open and arranged among multiple monitors. It's extremely annoying to re-do this setup the next day, so I leave it running. If hibernation worked reliably, I could turn the machine off at the end of the day.
Yeah, I have another one that has a stupid nvidia card that crashes when trying to hibernate sometimes. But that's nvidia fault, it was not something I would buy, was also forced upon me by another work place. At least it's consistent since many times it just crashes on boot up too and needs to be forced reboot up to 10 times sometimes.
Nvidia should burn in hell.
