Ask HN: What has happened with Dell XPS?
This is recent. My Dell XPS 15 9570 (Ubuntu) drains the battery like crazy and heats up when hibernating.

Until recently, it hibernated fine. I suspect a firmware update. Is anyone else having this with this particular model, and have you managed to fix it?

I have just yesterday disabled systemd suspend, which I hope fixes problem.
