Hi Chris:  So i installed a newer kernel today, 3.16-rc1.  So far, no
system crashes, which is very promising.

Yesterday I tried running two sequences of five suspends (system reboot
in between) and got no spontaneous waking, but did get two system
crashes and a third one in Unity (am using the computer somewhat
differently than in past months).  I noticed the attach bug report three
times right before a crash (always the same bug report).  Looks like the
bug is in the MEI driver, which could mean that other Intel systems are
affected.

If, as now seems likely, the new kernel will resolve my issues, I'd like
to use it in earnest, but this raises many questions.  For example,
VirtualBox refuses to work under this new kernel, and the kernel wants
me to install nearly 100 new packages, but I suspect this would mess
things up for the old kernel and I may need to go back to that when
things like VB won't work.  Should I check with the Ubuntu forum bboards
to get these kinds of questions answered?

Cheers!

Title:
  [HP Pavilion dv6t-6b00 CTO Quad Edition Entertainment Notebook PC]
  System freezes periodically when I try to suspend to RAM

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  About a couple times a week, my system freezes when I suspend to RAM
  (only way out is hard power off--alternative terminals are
  inaccessible). These seems to be happening more in KDE than when I was
  using Unity.
