[Bug 3642] Re: hibernate doesn't work from gdm itself
No hibernate/sleep available in gdm, but once logged in they do exist and work OK. I am on Jaunty. This laptop PC was upgraded from previous releases. The desktop PC I have was reinstalled with Jaunty and the hibernate/sleep buttons do show up (nevermind they do not work properly due to nvidia card - but that's not the problem here :) -- hibernate doesn't work from gdm itself https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/3642 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 3642] Re: hibernate doesn't work from gdm itself
In Gutsy, I don't have the "Hibernate" option in the gdm menu any longer. And Suspend does nothing*. Both work fine once I am logged in.

I can see same behaviour in gutsy, wheras the bug was fixed, according to previous post. Look at bug #139302 and say if it's the same or not (in gutsy). -- hibernate doesn't work from gdm itself https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/3642 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I tried the patch, and it works - I can now hibernate from the gdm login menu, whereas before it did not work. -- hibernate doesn't work from gdm itself https://launchpad.net/bugs/3642 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 3642] Re: hibernate doesn't work from gdm itself
note that the package is supposed to fix the menu item, not make hibernate work on box where it didn't work before (if it doesn't work from the GNOME dialog it'll probably make not work from gdm) -- hibernate doesn't work from gdm itself https://launchpad.net/bugs/3642 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 3642] Re: hibernate doesn't work from gdm itself
The importance change is not because the bug is present for some time, it's because the feature didn't work before so that's not a regression. I've updated the hibernation patch, could anybody having the issue give it a try? The updated patch can be downloaded from http://people.ubuntu.com/~seb128/11_powermanagement.patch (edgy) if you want to rebuild a package with it, or an edgy amd64 build http://people.ubuntu.com/~seb128/gdm_2.16.1-0ubuntu3_amd64.deb -- hibernate doesn't work from gdm itself https://launchpad.net/bugs/3642 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 3642] Re: hibernate doesn't work from gdm itself
Andrew, I think the policy is to use "high" only for regressions or major break of functionality. And nobody is saying it's not going to be fixed. But I generally agree with you, it should at least be "normal" and targeted for 6.10 IMO. I guess the developers are reluctant to remove the menu entry at this point in beta, because if it later/soon gets fixed in an update, putting back a menu entry will introduce a new GUI element and documentation will have to be changed and so on.

I'm not sure I understand why the longevity of the bug should influence it's priority. I'd like to understand. Would you mind explaining? Bug #1 has been true since way before gdm even existed and it's marked "Critical." :) Also, if you're saying that it's not going to get fixed then you should at least remove the option from gdm's menus.

Both on my machine do not work. Hibernate, I get "Authentication failed. Letters must be typed in the correct case" and I did not type anything in.
