No, it's just that since hibernate doesn't work, I don't pointlessly try to use it that much. > $ cat /sys/power/state > and check that "disk" is listed, (meaning it can hibernate) root@cf-gw:/home/carlf# cat /sys/power/state mem disk > Then, find out what pm-hibernation switches are being used by:- > $ cat /var/log/pm-suspend.log | grep -m 1 commandline > and post the results root@cf-gw:/home/carlf# cat /var/log/pm-suspend.log | grep -m 1 commandline Initial commandline parameters: So seemingly none. > If "disk" was listed try:- > # echo disk > /sys/power/state > And wait...

The power light flashed continuously, as did the tiny LED on my bluetooth dongle, so it clearly never powered down. When I forced power off by holding the power button down and then turned the netbook back on, it did not find a hibernation image to resume from.
