@eaglescreen, @taaroa; +10 re. the hybrid suspend method ;-) Ideally when the user presses the power down button we should both suspend and hibernate the computer at the same time. If the computer is then resumed while battery power is remaining, it should be un-suspended and the hibernate image discarded. If the battery goes below a set point, the suspend state would be discarded, and when the computer is next switched on it would then be un-hibernated.
Would anybody be interested in taking this on as a project? It is a lot of work, but it would be great to see this in Ubuntu. To add this feature somebody needs to step forward and take on this project. I proposed this idea at UDS-O in Budapest, however there was nobody available to take up this project, and that is still the case today. Any volunteers? ;-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/882040 Title: should let users enable or disable suspend and hibernate Status in Ayatana Design: Fix Committed Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in Baltix GNU/Linux: Confirmed Bug description: We should have an ui in the power capplet for that: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Power#Power_settings [The corresponding task for other desktop environments that do not use the GNOME control center is bug #976654.] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/882040/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
