Troubleshooting
Fan noise
Since Linux 4.1x laptop's fan may not spin down to a lower rev step (and noise) effectively appearing stuck at higher spinning speed with no apparent temperature reason. Possible workarounds are a quick suspend to ram or power off for more than 10 minutes.
HP Compaq 8510w
Follow the steps outlined in Suspend and hibernate#Hibernation. The suspend to disk process works correctly but the laptop does not power itself off. To fix this create the following file:
/etc/systemd/system/sleep.conf
[Sleep] HibernateMode=shutdown
This file tells Systemd to write shutdown instead of platform to /sys/power/disk before writing disk to /sys/power/state.
