This is a desktop, but possibly knowing the distinction, it would be "hibernate" that might be closer to OSX's "sleep" mode? Seems like in "suspend" the computer either gets "hot" or stays as hot as when it is running, so it doesn't seem to be using less power than when it is running . . . it's like "holding its breath" and there is some "tension" in the system--i.e., the computer isn't exactly "at rest" in suspend . . . . Possibly with hibernate there might be more systemic "rest"? I think one of the "kind" posters on the Ubuntu Apple User forum rather gruffly suggested that 12.04 would "hibernate" even though it wouldn't "suspend" . . . which it did do in PPC . . . seems like that "talent" has been lost in Xenial? Perhaps I'll try out the "echo" phrase for "hibernate" specifically when I get back to that partition, but, then, what is needed to "revive" out of "hibernate"??? Again, in OSX all I have to do to revive from sleep is click the mouse or hit a key and we are "awake." : - ) F
