Public bug reported: After I installed Lubuntu 13.10, I was no longer allowed to hibernate. This worked without a configuration change until Lubuntu 13.04. Using "pm-hibernate" from the command line, I was able to hibernate, but using the GUI the operation was not permitted. I had to create the file /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla with the following contents:
[Re-enable hibernate by default] Identity=unix-user:* Action=org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate ResultActive=yes Note that the action must be "org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate" and not "org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate" as described in https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html. I do not know if this affects only Lubuntu or other Ubuntu flavors too, but the correct recipe for Lubuntu should be mentioned in the documentation. ** Affects: ubuntu-docs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1241786 Title: Enable hibernate documentation is not correct for Lubuntu 13.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-docs/+bug/1241786/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
