[Kevin Godby <godbyk@xxxxxxxxx>]

I appreciate the patch, but I don't think this is suitable for the
system documentation.  In my view, the system documentation should
document the software as it exists and not provide workarounds for
design decisions.

If the Hibernate menu option appears in the future, I'll happily
document it.

I'm going to mark this bug as invalid for the documentation project. If
the menu option is added in the future, feel free to reopen this bug
against the docs project.

Thanks!

Title:
  Hibernate option is missing from menu in 13.10 even after trying to
  re-enable

Status in The Session Menu:
  New
Status in Ubuntu Documentation:
  Invalid
Status in “indicator-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Summary:

  The issues stopped appearing from 2013-11-07 onwards. The menu is
  built correctly now, but it is unknown which version of an updated
  package from that timeframe actually fixed the menu issue.

  The documentation needs to be updated with the instructions from the
  solution below to reenable hibernation in 13.10.

  -----

  Solution to reenable to hibernate menuentry:

  File /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-
  hibernate.pkla needs to contain:

      [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

  I upgraded from raring to saucy on my notebook, where hibernate was enabled and working fine. Now the hibernate option is missing. I followed the instructions on how to reenable hibernate (https://help.ubuntu.com/13.10/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html) but the option is still missing. Hibernating from terminal via s2disk works.

  File exists with proper content and permissions:
  $ sudo ls -l /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 111 Sep 29 18:52 /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla

  $ sudo cat /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla
  [Re-enable hibernate by default]
  Identity=unix-user:*
  Action=org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate
  ResultActive=yes
