Just echoing Johns (comment 315) here. There's a very reliable tuxonice ppa currently tracking maverick; I use it on all my machines and none of them currently has hibernation problems. The old argument against tuxoice was that the diff against the upstream kernel was too onerous to maintain.

Steve, thanks for the heads-up. I'm happy to re-enable it by default then, it's easy enough for the OEM team to disable it by placing a single file into /var/lib/polkit-1/... ** Changed in: policykit-desktop-privileges (Ubuntu Natty) Assignee: Canonical Desktop Team (canonical-desktop-team) =

If we're having such problems with hibernation, I'd say there is some value to be had in considering shipping Ubuntu with TuxOnIce, which provides better performance and compatibility. It looks like it will never be fully integrated into the vanilla kernel, so it is up to distributions. -- You re

I have an IBM Thinkpad T41. For me, the screen under X11 is borked terminally after suspend. Suspend also would not be an option most of the time because when I stop working to freeze state, this can be for quite long, and I don't keep my power supply running while the computer is off -- a waste

I do not think that hibernation should be disable by default; it is used by many and is the only sane choice to avoid data loss when the battery runs out. If OEMs do not want to enable it then they should be easily able to disable it but it should remain available for the rest of us. If hibernation

I'm using hibernation on my 2 machines and it works fine. On one of them, restoring from hibernation is even *slower* than clean boot (lots of RAM). But - nobody can measure my time of opening all my applications again, with specific ones, which cannot be saved to restore as it was. That's why i'm

@Martin - the OEM team doesn't disable hibernate on every system. Rather, we put in a great deal of effort to ensure that it *does* work on systems that we enable. Hibernate support is a requirement of many OEM team customers, in order to avoid data loss in low-battery situations. The OEM team doe

I mainly did this by request of the OEM team, as they said they disable hibernate on pretty much every shipped box, and because the kernel team said that they get tons of bug reports with it. But then again, if some people still actually use it, I guess we could turn it back on by default. It is v

@Rick I think you're misunderstanding. There are two issues: GUI and kernel. The GUI is configurable (whew), but the major issues is that hibernation was removed from the kernel, and is the bigger problem: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu- natty.git;a=commitdiff;h=2e5f0ea801534914c6747

The feature was not hidden because it had no benefits, but rather it has very high costs. A lot can and does go wrong with hibernate, and for many people, it just never works. It's worth exploring whether we can get by without the feature. In the meantime, the GUI is hidden, but the feature is not
