I've also been annoyed by this for quite a while... Here are some of the solutions I thought of:
- Insist on rebooting after a kernel upgrade. This is indeed the only time where rebooting is really needed (in comparison to another well-known OS where it is a common habit...). If the user declined, offers to remind her periodically (maybe a Gnome/KDE applet would be a good way to do it - as when there are updates available). - Before doing a Hibernate, check whether a kernel upgrade occurred. In that case, options are: - Remind the user that on next boot, she should choose the XXX line in GRUB. - Offer the user to do a shut-down instead, - If GRUB is configured to boot with "default saved", change the default to the currently used kernel. - Change GRUB to have no time-out... Note that if Hibernate is mostly used on laptops, it can also be used with desktops. So having different behaviours based on laptop/desktop detection doesn't sound good to me. -- resume from Hibernate fails with kernel upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/76424 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
