[Bug 1279349] [NEW] In Power Part : Wrong Help Doc at Hibernate

 

Public bug reported:

This is old Help Documents that work only old version :
{Enable hibernate
If the hibernate test works, you can continue to use the pm-hibernate command when you want to hibernate.
You can also enable the hibernate option in the menus. To do that, use your favorite text editor to create /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla. Add the following to the file and save:
[Re-enable hibernate by default]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate
ResultActive=yes

End}


But I do this I did't see Hibernate menu. When I use pm-hibernate command that work for me.
This is work for me also :
    [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

For I try search solutions on web there tell... :
{Re-enabling the hibernation option in the menu

To re-enable the hibernation option in the menu, your
/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla
should be modified to look like the following in saucy (13.10):

[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

Then reboot or run killall indicator-session-service in your session and you should have your hibernate functionality/menu option back.
Investigation from bug report

Citation from Jeffery To's post on Launchpad Bug Report #1232814:

    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.

    [...]

All thanks and credit go to Jeffery!
Why was hibernation disabled?

There exists a bug report on launchpad that suggests disabling
suspend/hibernate instead of tracking which hardware "certifies" for
which power modes. It's claimed to be a more scalable approach.

However, please understand that this is not a place to complain and please be nice.
