I'll try to make the background/step-by-step as short as possible:
Install ubuntu on an old laptop so I could use it as a media center with Kodi.
Do all updates/configs to make it look good.
Want to enable wake from usb so I could wake the computer using a wireless keyboard.
Follow several different instruction manuals online (including this one) but they don't work.
At some point during this (or this might be the case every time even before I started messing with configurations) Ubuntu started freezing when resuming from suspension.
Freezing happens every time. I can move the mouse for a few seconds before but can't click or use keyboard.
Ubuntu either crashes into a black screen with spooling repeating white text, crashes to log in screen, or simply sticks at which time I have to manually restart using the power button.
And just as I was writing this the first time, it also froze when I was looking at my network connection.
I'll include my syslog.
I tried to enable wake from suspend from USB using thes which didn't work. I had to resume by pressing the power button. On resuming I could move the mouse for a few seconds but clicking or using the keyboard didn't register and then Ubuntu crashed and rebooted to the login screen.
