I wonder at which point it actually shows that message.
I assume you are using:
# eix hibernate
* sys-power/hibernate-script
Available versions: 2.0-r6 {vim-syntax}
Homepage: https://gitlab.com/nigelcunningham/Hibernate-Script
Description: Hibernate script supporting multiple suspend methods
If yes, then try it with the verbose-option, maybe then you get to see where
that is generated.
Does suspend itself work? Or is the script failing as well?
Do you have hibernate configured in the kernel?
To check, you can try forcing hibernate manually by:
# echo disk > /sys/power/state
To resume, you will need to inform the kernel where to resume from.
Kernel command line option: resume="/path/to/swap/device"
If your swap-partition is a LV (eg, using LVM), you'll need to use an initrd
that will find the correct device-ID to pass to the resume-functionality.
I created my own init-ramfs for this and use the "hibernate" option provided
by kde/plasma. I can't remember when I last used a third-party script to get
this to work as it's generally quite simple to get working.
