A few months ago bought an X1 Extreme, so far I've been really satisfied with it. However, with recent BIOS (?) upgrades, the S3 state stopped working under Linux - if I try to put the laptop to sleep, all the lights indicate it entered sleep, but actually some components stay up, and the battery is drained during a single night from 100% to 0%. Quiet distutbing, not to mention the fact that when going to work, if I put the laptop into the bag, after 50 minutes of travel in sleep state, the laptop is warm.

Here is the syslog part right before the system enters sleep:

Sep 12 08:26:36 x1-extreme kernel: [ 1895.672456] e1000e: enp0s31f6 NIC Link is Down Sep 12 08:26:36 x1-extreme NetworkManager[1109]: <info> [1568269596.7359] device (p2p-dev-wlp0s20f3): state change: disconnected -> unmanaged (reason 'sleeping', sys-iface-state: 'managed') Sep 12 08:26:36 x1-extreme NetworkManager[1109]: <info> [1568269596.7361] manager: NetworkManager state is now ASLEEP Sep 12 08:26:36 x1-extreme whoopsie[1467]: [08:26:36] offline Sep 12 08:26:36 x1-extreme systemd[1]: Starting TLP suspend/resume...

And the lines right after this, when I make the laptop resume:

What annoys me is the

ACPI: Preparing to enter system sleep state S3

line, AFTER the laptop resumes. So seems like for some reason the laptop could not actually enter S3.

Any similar experiences with this? Or maybe the problem is something which X1C6 laptops suffer from as well? https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-X-Series-Laptops/X1-Carbon-6th-Gen-Battery-drain-in-sleep/td-p/4075415

Thanks in advance,
