I understand that. My Linux machine is a 2015 Asus UX305 laptop. Suspend/resume works under Ubuntu's desktop, but I use i3wm, which requires the user to enable features like that themselves. I never did get auto-suspend to work, but I was able to get suspend to work when I attached to a hotkey. So instead of closing lid (or having auto-suspend after, say, 30 minutes inactivity), I just press the hotkey to have the machine suspend. I grew to prefer this to lid-closing. (Auto-resume always worked fine under i3wm, just press any key and it started up).

The Asus UX3xx series has been working near flawless for me. I now have a ryzen based matebook that is quite moody wrt to suspend. I havent used hibernate in over 10 years.
