Hi Christopher, thanks for pointers, I've updated the BIOS as requested (neither wine nor VM with Windows running provided any help due to a check for toshiba hardware early on startup of the downloaded exe; what did the trick for me was cabextract for obtaining bios file & updater + a bootable freedos iso).
That didn't help, unfortunately. Here is dmidecode output: $ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date Version 4.10 01/08/2013 This is what happens: 1) sudo pm-suspend suspends my laptop. 2) pressing the power button should resume it - the display gets turned on but remains black, and shortly after that the fan gets very loud and runs at full speed. 3) there is no way to recover from that - except for forced shutdown with power button. Symptoms are exactly the same if I configure my desktop to suspend on lid closing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1362958 Title: [Toshiba Tecra R850-14Q] suspend/resume failure Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Resume doesn't work for me in Ubuntu 14.04. When I close the lid, or issue pm-suspend manually, the system gets suspended, but opening the lid results in black screen and laptop fan gets really loud. There is no way to recover from that.
