General :: Can Hibernate / Reboot Instead Of Hibernate / Poweroff?
Apr 10, 2010
I'm using pm-hibernate, and would like to reboot the machine after it's done hibernating, rather than having the machine turn off.Is there a way to do this with pm-hibernate, or any other Linux hibernate thing?
When I put my computer running Ubuntu 9.10 into suspend or hibernate the screen goes black with a little flashing underscore in the corner and when I try to bring the computer out of suspend or hibernate nothing happens and I am forced to manually reboot.
i want to remove shutdown/restart/hibernate buttons from my gdm login screen on ubuntu 10.10. if i disable these buttons with ubuntu tweak or gdm2setup it is just ignored and all buttons are still there.
Just got Ubuntu 9.10 and I'm liking it a lot, but my computer refuses to go into hibernate or suspend. I have a Dell M1530 but I don't really think it's a dell hardware issue because it's not just when I close the screen, it's also when I click suspend or hibernate from the menu.
i am using kubuntu and my laptop does not hibernate or even sleep whenever i close the lid of my laptop!! i have tried to configure the powersave but it is all in vain!! When i close the lid,the screen goes blank and it deactivates everything including the mouse and the keyboard!
On a Debian system, there are packages called uswsusp and hibernate. The former contains a program named s2disk, the latter contains a program called hibernate. Superficially, these both do the same thing: the suspend the machine to disk. Usually, this works fine, but since I'm often using Debian testing and there are lots of changes in kernel and other packages (I assume), somethings this breaks. But then, when one of these programs doesn't work, sometimes the other works. Often, hibernate works when s2disk doesn't.annoyingly, however, the "Suspend" or "Hibernate" buttons in the graphical user interfaces (e.g., LXDE, KDE) appear to be wired up to the s2disk program, so when that breaks I have to use hibernate manually.
So, what is the difference between these packages? Interestingly, the hibernate package "recommends" uswsusp, but the package description says that it "smartly puts your computer to sleep ... using one of the various methods available in the kernel". So apparently it can fall back to something else when the s2disk method fails? And if hibernate is more powerful, why wouldn't the GUIs use it instead?
where do I define that my laptop should go hibernate or suspend when my battery has a certain percentage? Where do I define this percentage ?I see no such options under Power Management Preferences.
I have installed Fedora 15 Alpha with GNOME 3. Everything is working fine. However, I can't see any option to hibernate or shutdown.
In the top panel when I click my user name, I only have one option and that is to suspend. Normally I like to hibernate or shutdown. And I can't see any option of what to do when I close my netbook. Normally, I prefer to hibernate.
I found that the solution was to do: pmi action hibernate
But when I typed in that, it showed: Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.Hal was not provided by any .service files
I have fedora 13. What is the difference between suspend and resume? If I suspend, how do I turn on the pc? If I hibernate, how do I get out of hibernation?
I dual boot Ubuntu and Windows and sometimes I just want to switch between the partitions without loosing the state of the OS I was currently working with. Currently to do that I just hibernate that OS and, when the computer turns off, I restart it and select the correct partition.
I do not really want to have to press the on button again every time I want to switch between partitions. I figure that there must be a way to make the hibernate action restart instead of shutting down.
How do I make the hibernate action restart instead of shutting down on:
Windows, or Ubuntu
P.S. It is more important to me that I can do this in Ubuntu than Windows (because of the way I use the partitions) therefore if one answer says the Ubuntu way and the other says the Windows way then I will mark the Ubuntu one as the answer and give the Windows one an upvote and a big thankyou.
I have installed Ubuntu as wubi (next to windows 7). When I expect the computer to shut down (either to hibernate or as part of, you know, shutdown), it doesn't. All the programs end, I am logged out, but I still have a picture on the screen (ubuntu default picture).
First of all let me introduce myself. My name is Rasheed and i am from UAE, after not having any reply from a week in Fedora's official forum i came across the linuxquestions through google and hoping to help others and resolve my issues as well with the help of experts here. So here is my problem what i am currently having. I am going through a serious issue right now. My laptop crashes when SUSPEND/HIBERNATE or unplugging the laptop's charger.
Currently running Slackware 13.37 64-bit on a notebook and finally have suspend/hibernate after realizing that USB devices, especially USB HDDs, need to be disconnected before suspend/hibernate can work. Problem is I have 2 USB HDDs that are connected to my notebook whenever the notebook is stationary for the extra storage so I'd like to create a script that would get invoked that would stop the suspend/hibernate process if certain partitions are mounted. I know what I would like to accomplish, but I have basic scripting knowledge so I was hoping to get some assistance.
1. script would basically store a user specified string containing devices that are non-USB, ie: NONUSB="/dev/sda /dev/sdb"
2. possibly use /etc/mtab to get a list of what is currently mounted and then remove lines containing whatever is specified in $NONUSB and store those values in $USB
3. run a for loop that executes 'umount' on each token in $USB 3a. stop suspend/hibernate process if 'umount' fails at any point 3b. if 'umount' passes then suspend/hibernate
I have been using Linux Mint with great success for about 5 months. The other day when I went to turn off my computer instead of selecting shut down, I accidentally clicked on "Hibernate". Now my computer will not turn on, even after a hard shut down. Nothing comes up, not even the BIOs screen. It did this once before and my Linux-guru ex was able to fix it, but I will be dammed if I remember what he did.
My system cannot resume after hibernation. I have done all as described here [URL] ...
My have set up swap file "/swap_debian".
I have 3 partitions: sda1: windows boot partition. sda2: windows 8.1. sda3 : debian
I have the only linux distro installed: debian.
I have read lots of web pages. I have managed to set up suspend 2 disk. After dancing 2 days at the computer the system still cannot resume. I am getting "clearing orphaned inode" msgs while booting, and when booted to ram was not recovered.
Swap file is 4000 MB, RAM is 3860 something MB
My current grub is:
Code: Select all# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update # /boot/grub/grub.cfg. # For full documentation of the options in this file, see: # info -f grub -n 'Simple configuration'
[Code] ....
And yes, I did update-grub.
My current /etc/uswsusp.conf is:
Code: Select all# /etc/uswsusp.conf(5) -- Configuration file for s2disk/s2both resume device = /dev/sda3 compress = y early writeout = y image size = 1855258869 RSA key file = /etc/uswsusp.key shutdown method = platform resume offset = 31606784
My current /etc/fstab is:
Code: Select all# /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a # device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices # that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
I no longer seem to have the option to hibernate my laptop. I can suspend it, but I would like the ability to hibernate. Does anyone else have this problem. Could I issue a terminal command to do this?
I've just installed OpenSUSE 11.2 instead of 11.1 and installed a new kernel 2.6.33. And now I have a problem. When I try Shutdown -> Hibernate under simple user my screen becomes black and nothing happens. Then I move my mouse or press an key and I see my desktop and a window that asks me to enter my root password. I thought there is some problem with permissions so I logged in as a root and tried to hibernate but everything went the same way except there was no window to enter root pass. I checked my kernel config and hibernate is on there.
I found this line in dmseg when I was checking out another problem. "[0.104467] ACPI Warning: Incorrect checksum in table [OEMB] - 03, should be FA 20090521 tbutils-246" Could this be why I have never been able to resume from hibernate on this machine?
I recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx. When I partitioned my HDD, I ran out of available partitions and so couldn't make a Swap Partition.I pushed on anyway, because I read here that you can create a Swap File instead of a partition that does the same thing. I've made the Swap File and it's activated (I know because during shutdown there's a message that flashes very quickly that says "Deactivating Swap [OK]".
But here's the real problem. My Ubuntu refuses to Suspend or Hibernate. The screen just goes black and the backlight stays on. Since one of the main functions of the swap file is to facilitate Suspend and Hibernate,I upgraded from 9.10 Karmic Koala, which suspended and hibernated normally.
I have tried to hibernate the system through the menu kde -> leave -> hibernate.The problem is that nothing happens and the system doesn't hibernate.Do I have to configure something? How can I investigate and solve this issue?
I have ubuntu 10.04 installed on a 50 gb partition on my hard drive I have given a 3.5 gb partition for swap which is > 3gb ram i have. Druing the installation of ubuntu I had specified the swap partition and its hibernate was working fine sometimes before. But I had to delete the swap partition and recreate it because of some reasons so I did that and again created a 3.5 gb partition for swap space usig ubuntu live cd.
But after restart ubuntu no longer detected the swap partition it was ok as its uuid had changed so I specified the swap partition to be mounted automatically by adding an entry in /etc/fstab and then also added the same UUID in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume so that it could resume. After restarting ubuntu after adding the entrly in /etc/fstab i got the option of hibernate but after hibernate everything goes well but after hibernate when i start laptop again ubuntu first tries to resume but it does not and without giving any message it shows the login screen.
