And again.

Well, after I recover the system I'm going to migrate my /home to a small 
ext4 partition, leaving Documents and the big directories in the current 
xfs home, renamed to something else. I hope this way to avoid the crashes 
and corruption on restore from hibernation.

SUSE and openSUSE (12 and 13.2) are switching to use, on new installs by 
default, btrfs for their root filesystem, and xfs for home. I hope that 
this will cause more crashes on laptops on return from hibernation, 
producing more reports, and finally solving the root cause of this.

Or perhaps it does not happen on 13.2, and I'm the only one left having 
the issue...

Anyway, as I'm using 13.1, and will be for some time, the solution for me 
is to move the core of /home to ext4, at least temporarily.



If someone wants me to get some data from the partition, I'm willing. I 
made a full 'dd' of it before attempting mount or repair on it (still 
pending), it will be possible for some days or more. Time permitting. :-)
