I installed the following:

linux-headers-3.17.0-031700rc5_3.17.0-031700rc5.201409151105_all.deb
linux-headers-3.17.0-031700rc5-generic_3.17.0-031700rc5.201409151105_amd64.deb
linux-image-3.17.0-031700rc5-generic_3.17.0-031700rc5.201409151105_amd64.deb

The system seemed to boot fine, then after about a minute at the login
prompt it went to sleep. I pressed the button (once it had quiesced) to
wake it up, and it got very unhappy. The fan started whirring at max,
the display was still dead and the keyboard did not respond. After a
minute of the machine howling in despair, I poked it in the eye and
booted the known good kernel.

(Currently running 3.13.0-36-generic #63, which also goes to sleep if I
don't log in at the GDM window within a minute.)

Title:
  [Dell Dimension E521] System goes to sleep at GDM window and never
  wakes up

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  On my Dell Dimension E521, a desktop system, if I leave the system at
  the login prompt it will very quickly go to sleep. When I press the
  power button to wake it, the system seems to restart, but the screen
  and the keyboard never wake up.  I have to poke it in the eye and
  reboot.

  This behavior effectively renders the machine unusable if I am away.
  If the power goes out and the system reboots, it will very quickly
  sleep and never wake up. Thus, I cannot use it remotely.

  And if I forget to immediately (IMMEDIATELY) log in, the system will
  go to sleep and I have to hard power off and reboot. Very annoying.

  This only happened once I upgraded to 14.04.
