And I hibernated after that, but it did not come back up (rather came back up with a non-working mouse -- clicks that would not do anything), so I had to reboot.

(And it is not at all clear to me that the distribution has much to do with it. These may be kernel issues, and I have submitted to bugzilla both on Fedora and kernel.org but so far no resolution/workaround.) This is a Dell Precision M3800.

I have been trying this now: 

kernel-3.17.0-1.vanilla.mainline.knurd.1.fc20.x86_64

so that it helps in debugging for kernel.org. I was thinking of trying 3.17.1 when it is released. From what I understood, the kernel with kernel.x86_64 3.18.0-0.rc0.git6.1.fc22  may well be the same. Prior to that, I tried:

kernel-3.17.0-0.rc7.git3.1.fc22.x86_64
kernel-3.17.0-0.rc7.git2.1.fc22.x86_64

from rawhide. 

Thanks,
Ranjan
