# gconftool-2 -R /apps/gnome-power-manater | grep can can_hibernate = true can_suspend = true
Both suspend and hibernate work when I manually use them from the GNOME "Quit" button. The system also properly hibernates when I close the laptop lid. I'm not sure if this screenshot is up to date: http://www.gnome.org/projects/gnome-power-manager/gpp.html If you look at the "Global Options" window, that "Sleep type when inactive" option is missing on my system. I will note that it is also missing on my desktop system (IBM ThinkCentre M50). It is also missing in Feisty. So, on this system, there is no way for the user to configure the system to choose between hibernate and suspend when inactive. What happens is that it first suspends, then hibernates immediately when I resume from suspend. -- when returning from suspend my laptop tries to hibernate https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/149665 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
