@BeastOfCaerbannog I have made the background / wallpaper / desktop-background tag changes as @Zanna has suggested . The tag excerpt is a little basic on desktop-background but the message is there...
@andrew.46 Thank you! I edited the tag's excerpt to add the case where the tag should not be used (i.e. when referring to backgrounds of applications) and also added full tag wiki. Both need to be reviewed.
OT no-repro hardware "So without changing any more software, or software configurations, I got a new motherboard, a MSI B550M-PRO-VDH WIFI, swapped out my Gigabyte 550 Gaming V2 rev 1.3, and now sleep/suspend works!"
@karel From OP's comment: "The issue exists also in later and supported versions of Ubuntu. Upgrading doesn't solve the question." So maybe we shouldn't close this one?
