<p>Ditto. Ubuntu 20.04 with Mate DE. I can close lid and suspend
easily and awake easily. I don't unplug the power though as that's
a risk if the battery craps out before waking, as Ted states<br>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">LeRoy &
NMGLugers, 1) I suggest you keep power on overnight. If you
suspend and power fails your ram image of work is lost. You
can try hibernate, but there have been issues with Linux and
hibernate. Hibernate puts the snapshot image of your work on
the hard drive, but unless the resume is set to resume form
the correct location you will have a failure.</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">My routine is
to suspend during the day, if I go out or take an hour off for
non-computer work. Over night I switch off after saving work
and closing all apps. Your LXde is fine. I use Xfce4 or Mate,
but the gui desktop is not the issue. I have found Mate much
easier to manage after also finding the "extras" package for
it and loading that. However, that just gives me a richer gui,
did not help with suspend. <br>

I have often heard that Linus can have problems with
hibernation. Can you just 'Suspend' the system instead? That
ssem to be less problematical, though even that can be iffy,
depending on the laptop.<br>
