Damn... I need a clean method to tell *all* power managers that suspend
to disk is not supported.
Having to run and reconfigure whatever power manager is en vogue today
(kpowersave, guidance-power-manager, klaptopd, gnome-power-manager,
whatnot) is pretty annoying, especially if you have users com
It won't persist over reboots, and it's still not the right answer. hal
reports that the kernel supports hibernation, which is accurate and what
it's designed to do. The bug is not in hal's reporting - it's the fact
that hibernation doesn't work on a specific machine.

The issue can be solved by running:
hal-set-property --udi /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer --key
power_management.can_hibernate --bool false
and
hal-set-property --udi /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer --key
power_management.can_suspend_to_disk --bool false
as root.
Afterwards hal re
Hal is behaving correctly. kpowersave should have similar functionality
for setting mandatory policy.

I just asked on #kubuntu-devel, they seem to agree that the cleanest
solution would be to be able to change the setting in hal: All power
managers would pick that up. Seems cleaner than changing all power
managers out there to have some extra setting (and messing with all of
them if you ever need t
That is not a good solution: For one thing I am using Kubuntu which does
not use g-p-m as far as I know.
This particular piece of hardware is not able to suspend to disk. There
should be a way for an administrator to configure this globally
independent of environment the user happens to be running
I discussed this often with Matthew Garrett. He meant that hal should
display what the machine is technically capable of, and that g-p-m
should respect user policy and read configuration files.
