Ubuntu

Desktop only suspends once after bootup

Asked by hellhound on 2015-02-20

I have a desktop using Ubuntu 14.04 and have been having issues getting suspend to work. If I reboot the machine suspend will work fine the first time, but after that the computer will only lock the screen but not power the monitor or hard drives down. The screen will flash off and than back on every few minutes though. Can anyone give me any suggestions?

I have tried searching for fixes and ensures no usb wake options were turned on the BIOS and also made sure that and ran across a script that I put in /etc/pm/sleep.d named as 20_SuspendFix from this website http://thecodecentral.com/2011/01/18/fix-ubuntu-10-10-suspendhibernate-not-working-bug

Below is /proc/acpi/wakeup results:
