[SOLVED] Hibernating computer breaks it until reboot

For some reason, if i hibernate my computer... I can't use it until i force power off, and as you may think force powering of is not a good idea...
This could be related that sometimes the keyboard breaks, and then how could i check
Code: [Select]
dmesg
, if someone has any ideas tell me, i am using
Code: [Select]

Hibernation is working fine here. Can you explain how you set up your swap file/partitions?

You (may) be out of luck:
"Hibernate" needs a swap partition to work.
"Suspend", however, should work even with no swap space configured.

Suspend freezes and conserves the RAM content and shuts down  CPU and disks.
Hibernate dumps the complete memory content to the swap partition and switches the computer off - including the RAM.

I have a swapfile only that i didnt set it up on fstab because when i setted it up i where lazy

Added it to fstab.

If default /etc/elogind/logind.conf is setup to suspend why is it not working?

In order to use hibernation, you need to create a swap partition or file. You will need to point the kernel to your swap using the resume= kernel parameter, which is configured via the boot loader. You will also need to configure the initramfs. This tells the kernel to attempt resuming from the specified swap in early userspace. These three steps are described in detail below.

If the swap file is in /home/, systemd-logind will not be able to determine its size and thus will prevent hibernation. See systemd issue 15354 for a workaround.
Is this needed on runit?

I only plan to use the swap for hibernating what swapinness should i set?
I have 32564940 kB of memory, how large should i make the swapfile?

no, i don't think so

If you use hibernation, then you must add swap because the content of the RAM will be written to the swap partition. This also means that the swap size should be at least the size of RAM.

In /etc/mkinitpcio.conf have anything related?

I have maken a 38GB swap file; ran dd, mkswap, swapon; is safe now to try to hibernate?

More than enough, I use a 4GB partition with 32GB RAM, but I always close heavy programs and drop caches before hibernation ('echo 3 >| /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches'). I'm low on disk space though and I'm also trying to minimize SSD wear.
