Hello Bruce,
I think that you may well have pin pointed where the issue lies. I just
rebooted into an old build of systemd vmlinuz-3.16.1-lfs-20140822-systemd
from august, which is on the internal hard drive. I installed pm-utils
and hibernate is working correctly there. It resumes from a complete
shutdown without any issues.
I have a full gnome setup on it. I have no idea if, other than patching
the kernel if there is another tweak that can be done. I think that a
note in the respective books is probably in order, advising people who use
an external usb hard-drive that hibernate will most probably not work
without patching the kernel. The only issue there is that tuxonice is not
really being maintained fast enough to keep up with the kernel revisions.
Regards,
Christopher.
