Re: Hibernate/suspend works without quirks, but not with Gnome

I have a desktop system that is fully capable of hibernating and
suspending.  Both

 % pm-hibernate

and

 % pm-suspend

work beautifully.  I don't need to supply any further command line
options.  Resuming is also no problems.  Despite this
gnome-power-manager refuses to let me hibernate/suspend using the
shutdown dialogue.  Confusingly the message written to /var/log/messages
on an attempt to hibernate is:

 Jun 30 22:11:55 tatooine gnome-power-manager: (magnus) Resuming computer
 Jun 30 22:11:55 tatooine gnome-power-manager: (magnus) hibernate failed

I'm not really sure how to get this working from Gnome.  The quirks
pages don't seem to handle this situation...

Is your user in group powerdev?
Is your machine listed in hal-info to require quirks (lshal | grep quirk)?
What graphic adapter / graphics driver / kernel version do you use?

Cheers,
Michael

What does /var/log/pm-suspend.log say, when you call suspend/hibernate via g-p-m?
