Public bug reported: Binary package hint: pm-utils
Here it goes a solution: 1-Download ans install uswsusp and hibernate 2- edit this file /etc/uswsusp.conf with this content resume device = /dev/sda2 splash = n compress = y early writeout = y RSA key file = /etc/uswsusp.key shutdown method e= shutdown Obviously, change /dev/sda2 for the partition that match your swap. Gparted should give you that information 3- try it by typing "sudo s2disk". Normally appears a message showing the process. If it doesn't, and strange things appear don't panic and wait, it happens sometimes. 4- Restart the computer and see the results. If it have worked you can make the changes to avoid typing s2disk everytime you want to hibernate. Do the following 5- make a backup of the file we're going to modify: sudo cp /usr/lib/hal/scripts/linux/hal-system-power-hibernate-linux /usr/lib/hal/scripts/linux /hal-system-power-hibernate-linux.bak 6- now edit : sudo gedit /usr/lib/hal/scripts/linux/hal-system-power- hibernate-linux 7- delete all the content and write this : #!/bin/sh /sbin/s2disk 8-update the kernel with : sudo update-initramfs -u I hope it works, apologizes for my bad English (this is from the Spanish forum Ubuntu-es) ** Affects: pm-utils (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- the solution to the hibernate problem https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/298102 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
