Lenovo T61 - Windows7, Hibernate mode works fine. Suspend Works fine and has for the last 3 years.
Lenovo T61 - Suddenly 12.04 comes along and apparently that laptop is not good enough for hibernate, even though I carefully created a swap drive large enough for such things. Hrrm. Suddenly I can't just just close the lid because I have to make damn sure all my docs are shut because the battery might not last. Well, I can if I'm using Windows. Irony, anyone?

On a laptop where every last drop of battery life is necessary, I find this disabling of Hibernation to be pretty lame. Sure it can be enabled but hibernation should be made an option in Power Management. You know, like it used to be.

So count me on the list of people who have laptops who have and need hibernation, but that Ubuntu doesn't play nice with.
