** Description changed: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - TO RE-ENABLE HIBERNATE: If the hibernate option is supported by your system and you need it, you can re-enable it as follows: - - 1. create a new file - /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/com.ubuntu.desktop.pkla: - - sudo gedit - /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/com.ubuntu.desktop.pkla - - 2. put the following content: - - [Re-enable hibernate] - Identity=unix-user:* - Action=org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate - ResultActive=yes - - 3. save the file and restart your computer. + TO RE-ENABLE HIBERNATE: If the hibernate option is supported by your system and you need it, you can re-enable it as follows: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html You may be also interested in subscribing to bug #882040, which tracks the implementation of a configuration tool to toggle hibernate and suspend. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Id like to proposse a change in the design of Power preferences in the GNOME control center: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Power Instead going throuh the "certification" path, we can simply disable the options about suspend/hibernate if Its not supported in the current hardware (we have api for this in upower) I think this solution is more scalable, as we do not need to maintain a database with "certified" hardware. Also, we can add a button or a informative text when suspend/hibernate doesnt work to guide the users about what to do.
