Title:
  Hibernate fails on 12.10

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I tried to upgrade from 12.04 to the first public release of 12.10 a
  few days ago .

  Hibernation does not work. It worked fine on 12.04.  The error I get
  is a load of messages like the following

  132.nnnnnn write-error on swap-device 8.0:mmmmmmmmm
   
  (where n and m are various increasing digits.)

  I have checked the swap partition is active. I even resized it (using
  a live DVD and GParted) to get a bit more space than memory to see if
  that was the problem, did a completely fresh install and made sure the
  partition was mounted again in /etc/fstab. No luck.

  With my very limited knowledge it rather looks as if the disks, or the
  drivers, are being turned off before hibernation has completed.

  The reason I use hibernation is that suspension doesn't work on my 5
  year old desktop. I also like the whole thing to be powered off when I
  leave it for a while..

  Has anyone else got a similar problem. Is it a new 'feature'?

  I can't try any further tests because due to this and other 12.10
  problems I had to give up and go back to 12.04.  In truth, 12.10 was a
  bit of a nightmare.  I should have waited 6 months or so.
