Public bug reported:
Steps to reproduce: - add required policy file for enabling hibernation: http://askubuntu.com/questions/94754/how-to-enable-hibernation - reboot, verify that "Hibernate" is available as menu item in the system/power menu - make sure, that you have swap partition at least of your PC RAM size - select "Hibernate" in system/power menu - make sure, that system is hibernating/resuming correctly - open power settings, set "When power is critically low":"Hibernate" - wait until your battery becoming critically low What should happens: - hibernation as soon as you see "Your battery is critically low" notify-osd message What really happens: - power shutdown: not restart/reboot, nor correct system shutdown - just like someone cut off battery Not working workarounds: - enabling/disabling "use-time-for-policy" option using dconf-editor I'm getting ready to provide any helpful additional information to fix this nasty bug, since that just drive me crazy.
