[Bug 812394] Re: Disable hibernate option when it is not supported

 

When OEM role a custom Ubuntu release for new hardware they will be able
to include the new hardware on the white list.  And all 'Ubuntu
Certified' hardware (where it is testing and know to work) will also be
included, so I think we are good here for now.  It would also be great
to have a community hardware certification process in the future.

Title:
  Disable hibernate option when it is not supported

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Committed
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Id like to proposse a change in the design of Power preferences in the
  GNOME control center: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Power

  Instead going throuh the "certification" path, we can simply disable
  the options about suspend/hibernate if Its not supported in the
  current hardware (we have api for this in upower)

  I think this solution is more scalable, as we do not need to maintain
  a database with "certified" hardware. Also, we can add a button or a
  informative text when suspend/hibernate doesnt work to guide the users
  about what to do.
