I am ^^^^^^^^^ When (not if) suspend to disk/resume fails, you get to keep all the broken pieces of your filesystem. It works most of the time, but it has some fundamentally broken corner cases that you probably just hit.... > Similar stuff happened on the encfs encrypted KDE user that I use for > professional stuff - encfs is layered on top of XFS via FUSE: IIRC, FUSE cannot be suspended safely at all, so expect corruption of FUSE filesystems on a failed suspend. I've never had a system that suspends reliably (let alone resumes from the suspend) so it's no real surprise that I don't trust suspend to disk....
