This 'bug' also affects me. Kubuntu 13.10 64-bit, kernel 3.11.0-13-generic, KDE 4.11.2.
The problem, as I see it, is that the files: org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate don't exist in /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/ and in fact, don't exist anywhere on my laptop, so how can /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla work without them? I'd think not, but... I've followed the instructions in #13 and I have the Suspend to Disk in Leave options. I'm going to open several apps and use Suspend to Disk and then reboot afterwards and see if it works. I'm suspecting it wont. I'll report back. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to indicator-session in Ubuntu.

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.
