For Saucy, indicator-session was updated to use logind
(org.freedesktop.login1) instead of upower.
If you check
/var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/com.ubuntu.desktop.pkla,
you'll see that hibernate is disabled by default in both upower and
logind.
So the first step to re-enable the Hibernate option is to edit
/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla
to something like:
[Re-enable hibernate by default in upower]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate
ResultActive=yes
[Re-enable hibernate by default in logind]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate
ResultActive=yes
After rebooting, the login screen session menu should have a Hibernate
option.
After logging in, the desktop session menu still doesn't have the
Hibernate option. If I kill the indicator-session-service process and
wait for it to be respawned, the menu will be updated with Hibernate.
I don't see anything obviously wrong in the indicator-session code, so I
suspect this is a timing issue. My guess is the hibernate dbus (async)
query hasn't returned a result yet when it first builds the desktop
session menu.
(Another clue to indicator-session building menus too early: I have a
Reboot option in my desktop session menu, even though I'm using Unity
and the code should have hidden it. The Reboot option is gone after
indicator-session-service is killed and respawned.)
I'll try to investigate more as time permits.
