What I used to get out of HIBERNATE is that the computer does a little quiet
thinking and then turns itself OFF.
Upon restarting, it picks up where it left off, and all rather quickly.
NOT ANYMORE (since November?).
Now, when I hit HIBERNATE (DELL VOSTRO 200) (2/24/2009 up-to-date UBUNTU)
it
>>> quietens and slows down for 35 seconds <<<
and then RESTARTS without EVER turning off its power.
What happens after I turn off the power depends on WHEN I do that. There
are 3 cases:
[1] If I turn off the power BEFORE 35 seconds, I must do a full (non-
hibernate) STARTUP the next time I turn the power on.
[2] If I turn off the power JUST AS HIBERNATE STARTS ITS RESTART, (at
35-40 seconds ? after the loud fan or disk noise starts up again) then I
get a true HIBERNATE, which restarts where I left things.
[3] If I let HIBERNATE's automatic RESTART go too far, and then turn off
the power (say at 50 seconds), then when I restart the computer, I get a
sort of ERROR-CORRECTING RESTART with slews of error messages.
