    Acer Predator Helios 500 Suspend Issues

    This is the PH517-61 Acer Predator Helios 500 with the Ryzen processor. My first issue I need to deal with is Suspend. I have temporarily disabled suspend in the kcmshell5 configuration. If I do let the laptop suspend and then hit the keyboard I get what appears to be a 1950s TV with no signal. At this point I manually power down and then power up again and am able to view things on screen.

    Running these commands I get this information:
    $ journalctl -b -g suspend
    Compiled without pattern matching support

    $ journalctl -b -p3

    This is a Vega 56 card but Kubuntu seems to think it is a Vega 64:
    $ lspci -k | grep -EA3 'VGA|3D|Display'
    08:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Vega 10 XT [Radeon RX Vega 64] (rev c7)
    Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Vega 10 XT [Radeon RX Vega 64]
    Kernel driver in use: amdgpu
    Kernel modules: amdgpu

    $ glxinfo | grep "OpenGL version"
    OpenGL version string: 4.4 (Compatibility Profile) Mesa 18.2.2

    I have a couple other issues as well (if i run it off battery for awhile and then plug it in and off a couple of times it won't charge unless I reboot, as well I have to manually run alsamixer every time to get sound through the speakers) but thought I would present this one first.
Working...
