Ubuntu :: Desktop Version On Laptop - Doesn Not Hibernate?
Jun 12, 2010
i have some problems.. I set the laptop when I close the lid to hibernate and none of them really work. it doesnt "hibernate". the pc is on.. fans are on all lights are on i left it overnight and it got HOT i have to have it "shut down" when i close lid...
I have installed Ubuntu 10.10 desktop version on my Lenovo L420 laptop. Now my friend told me that if I had installed laptop version on it then it would have recognized events related to laptop like closing down the laptop screen and all.
Q1. Is there any way by which I can upgrade it to laptop version?
My desktop is a Compaq CQ5110F. It's a dual boot system and Fedora 11 resides on sda3 of hard disk (WD 3200AAJS-6).Both suspend and hibernate don't work, but the symptoms are different. For hibernate, after resume, there are some messages (??) about register errors quickly flashed on the screen, then the logon window shows but the system hangs. For suspend, I cannot wake up the system by hitting some keys on the keyboard. After I press the power button, LCD doesn't get any signal. I remember hibernate worked when I was using Fedora10, but wireless card did not automatically reconnect at that time. Also hibernate works fine for vista.
Since I have 3 Network cards in my Desktop PC I've configured it to act as a Router using GNU/Linux Ubuntu Lucid in combination with Samba so I could share my internet connection. It works on any laptop a connect to it using any of the network cards ports [regardless of the operating system installed on the Laptops], but when I plug that same network cable to any Desktop PC [regardless of the operating System installed] it doesn't even light the LED in the netcards. From the Client PC seems like nothing is plugged in the the netcards.
I installed U10.10 desktop version on my asus laptop and having problem with sis graphic card. Resolution is 840*600. Is the problem verson of installation or not. I don't want to install it again if it is not necessary
I think it might have to do with an app I installed called Jupiter (http://sourceforge.net/projects/jupiter/) that missed with my power configs, I removed it but I still can't hibernate or suspend. Whenever I try to do either, my screen fades to black and nothing happens. If I move the mouse or touch the keyboard, it comes back.
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!
After installing Ubuntu Tweaks (that's about all I remember changing) the cursor disappears whenever I hibernate or suspend the laptop. I am running 10.04.1 and have compiz running but changing to less effects seems to have no effect on this problem. when I have no cursor the only thing I can do is restart and it reappears and does fine until I suspend or hibernate. Some hours later - I just found the setting that caused this. The tweak has a box that was clicked to disable the touchpad while typing. This caused the blank cursor when awakened. working now. This shouldn't happen, but I guess this is one to leave alone. Here we go again. cursor disappears after suspend.
My Suspend and Hibernate buttons disappeared on my laptop.And i can't find a way to restore that I heard that i could restore them with Ubuntu tweak but i can't find how.
When I close the lid of my laptop and open it after some time I am greeted with a message "Failed to suspend". When I tried to manually suspend/hibernate, I saw these options are not available there at all. Of course, they did exist when I did the fresh installation but I cant see them anymore. I am totally pissed off with this.

My AspireOne with Xubuntu 11.04 goes back to hibernate just after I hit a key to wake it up. I recorded a video of the problem, but this forum won't allow me to post the link. I guess you can PM if you want to watch the problem.
The trouble started immediately after I followed the instructions to test out Unity. I was going to post the link, but again, noobs like me can't do that.
My Thinkpad T61 just got a Corsair X256 SSD in the ultrabay (where the CD usually is). This works well except for hibernating. Earlier I had a traditional HDD drive there which also hibernates just fine.After a failed hibernate the machine hangs with this message on screen:

Installed Squeeze into my Thinkpad T410 and noticed that when I closed the laptop lid, the moon icon does not light up.Reopening the lid and will see a screensaver password screen immediately.Does this means that the laptop does not have Sleep (or is it called hibernate) mode enable? How can I enable it?[Solved]Managed to found out what I've done wrongFor KDE users, go to the menu-> Power Management-> Chose the Profile as Powersave
i would like to replace my Ubuntu Desktop version with the Netbook version. I dont mind losing my current data on the desktop version but if there is a way for me not too i would love to know
I was using Ubuntu netbook remix 10.10 liveusb ver. and then someone unplug my power and then i unaware of it and leave it. after serval hours, i find it and the screen go blacke. when i reboot with the LiveUSB, i find it just same as not being used before. although it is what Live USB supposed to do if someone restart the computer with it, but i check the deafult setting when the battery become extremely low it should hibernate install, and why LiveUSB ver. would loss all data after hibernate as same as restart?
The OS is Lucid 64-bit . Before I begin I must say suspend/hibernate works fine with 3 other machines, so I'm trying to find out what's wrong with this one. I tried [URL].. and also I tried changing acpi-support. It currently is as this:
I recently installed Ubuntu 11.04 on a HP Pavillion Elite HPE-515sc. Product information is here: [URL]
After I installed I could shut down the computer. Then I tried hibernating and it hanged. I tried also suspending, it hanged as well. After that, I could not shut down computer with software, I have to use the power off button.
how to fix these problems (shutting down, hibernating and suspending)?
Just got my AW M11x and I am following a thread on installation issues and work around. My question is should I install the desktop version or the Netbook version? Not sure the best location to post, if incorrect please move accordingly Wanting to run gimp, open office, wine to access MS office (use for school) and possibly install photoshop for raw work gimp cant handle.
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.
I have installed Ubuntu (both 10.10 and 11.04 pre-release) on my laptop but my battery is not recognized and it is detected as a desktop system rather than a laptop. I have tried the cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state method but the directory doesn't exist. I have tried another guide to paste the battery info into this directory but it doesn't allow me to do that and says that the directory doesn't exist, even though I'm trying to make it. I tried it in root nautilus and even on an install of Lubuntu (with a root file manager) but it still failed to budge. I really don't know what to do as I have tried all the guides on the internet that I could find.
Is there any option to hibernate desktop computer (on AC power) automatically after staying idol for say.. 30 minutes?In System>Preferences>Power Management there is a option to Put computer to sleep when inactive for minutes. But no option to automatic hibernate.
