From an ARS Technica story:
Linux 3.15, expected to be released in mid-2014, "will feature a large number of ACPI and power management updates" and allow Linux-based computers to suspend and resume faster, Phoronix reported today.
'Visible to users with the Linux 3.15 kernel should be reduced time for system suspend and resuming, thanks to the enabling of more asynchronous threads,' the article said, pointing to a list of changes posted by Rafael Wysocki, an Intel employee who maintains the Linux kernel's core power management code. Basic support for Nvidia's Maxwell architecture is also in the works for Linux 3.15.

I've been running various versions of the kernel on my Acer Aspire Revo 3700. http://www.amazon.com/Acer-AspireRevo-AR3700-U3002 -Compact-Desktop/dp/B00433SP6G [amazon.com]
Always the same problem since I got it. Resume from suspend works, but no sound. Kinda sucks since I'm using it as a media PC in the livingroom running OpenELEC (an XBMC distribution). I always update to the latest version hoping it will fix the problem, but no joy. To get sound to work requires a reboot.

Yeah, just reboot the server. Like you do in Windows: problem? reboot the software. God Linux is crap. Just use Windows 7.
