smurf is still having a problem:
Well, actually I never tried the hibernate function, exactly because I don' t have space on the internal disk fir a 600 MB swap area. As I have and 8 GB class 2 SDHC card I wanted to test it, just to discover if is a usable function or not.
As well I' d like to have all the functions working on my EeePc (because a friend of mine, using other operating system...., says that Ubuntu is not able to bla bla bla).

So, back to us, midnightflash says that Ubuntu is able to do this, but
even if the swap is currently working

             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:        503736     264156     239580          0      11148     100816
-/+ buffers/cache:     152192     351544
Swap:       626524          0     626524

when I try to hibernate it says that swap is not present:
