Dell XPS 9510 and the linux experience | Ben Mezger
I’ve recently decided to migrate back to Linux after some years of using a MacBook. I haven’t distanced myself from Linux while using the Mac, as I had a Thinkpad x320 by my side all the time running Archlinux.
I wanted something much more powerful than the Macbook, along with a lightweight design and something that would last for the next five years.
I’ve got myself a Dell XPS, with the following specification:
I found the root cause of the issue (at least on my XPS 9510). Closing the lid while having bluetooth enabled was somehow waking the computer, so I managed to test a fix of the issue just by disabling bluetooth in Gnome. Closing the lid now enter in S3 deep sleep.
So I wrote a script to disable bluetooth and reenable it whenever I close/open the lid.
Create a script with the following command rfkill block bluetooth and make it executable : chmod +x YOUR_SCRIPT_NAME
@dannycoulombe I managed to get it working days before my XPS decided to die, so I couldn't get this post updated. I use LUKS with an encrypted swap partition, and it turns out I didn't enable the resume [1] hook in my mkinitcpio config and some other things. These are the file changes I needed to do.

Any luck with the hibernate/suspend issue?
