I can't suspend my Asus laptop: after suspending it resumes again. So I can't suspend it at all. The problem started today. Here you have some kernel logs. I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 by the way.

  • Suspend is infamously buggy on Ubuntu (edit: laptops). Sorry I can't give you a better explanation because I don't know the technical facts.

  • Look at the contents of /var/log/pm-suspend.log --- it could help.

This is a wild guess but... worked for me. My new desktop failed to suspend because it has a XHC keyboard that woke it up immediatly. Running this script (I have it in /etc/rc.local) fixed it --- the only collateral effect is that I have to push the power button to resume, does not work from the keyboard. 

#
# disabling wakeup on USB --- use just PWRB
#
for device in XHC EHC1 EHC2; do
    grep $device /proc/acpi/wakeup | grep enabled > /dev/null && {
        echo Disabling wakeup on $device 
        echo $device > /proc/acpi/wakeup
    }
done
