I'll swap out to my other SSD later and spin up 15.04 again to test. Though for now it might be worth mentioning that I did install Manjaro Linux on a 2nd partition to tinker with some newer packages with the AUR. It's on kernel 3.16, and like i said, different partition but same laptop. I closed the lid and it did absolutely nothing, even though it was set to suspend on lid close. That makes me feel somewhat confident that this might be an upstream kernel issue.

Traditionally this laptop hasn't been great with this kind of stuff. Even today, assuming suspend/resume *does* work, the brightness controls via the Fn keys have never worked after a resume. But on a fresh boot, Fn keys to control brightness are just fine.

I'll still test 15.04 again for further confirmation before I report anything upstream, but my gut thinks the writing is on the wall.
