Hi, I understand your frustration. You should know that power management and the ability to put your laptop to sleep, or perchance to put it into hibernation mode, has been a major problem under Linux. For many years many of us just gave up. I go back about a dozen years, when I fist started with Fedora. At that time it was not possible to put your laptop to sleep, so many just gave up. Over the years, things improved and it was possible. i still run under SL 6.9 and my laptop will sleep without any problems. Let's face it, this is not rocket science. The Apple people have figured out how to do this some years ago.
If you can undo your changes, you just might be able to put your laptop to sleep, and recover your session. Just my two cents worth. regards, Andrew On 10/26/2017 7:23 AM, Stefano Vergani wrote: > Hi all, > > I have just upgraded Scientific Linux to version 7.4 and I have found an > issue I cannot fix.
