Recently the "suspend" and "hibernate" options have disappeared from
gnome's logout dialog (a good thing). I tried hibernating with 20-6.11
by stopping X (/etc/init.d/gdm stop), unloading the nvidia driver (sudo
rmmod nvidia) and echo "disk" > /sys/power/state . It still fails.

What happens when doing the above is that the machine shuts down
normally, but when I turn it back on, it proceeds to a clean boot (i.e.
doesn't even attempt to come back from hibernate). This seems to be
happening because my swap partition gets corrupted. I noticed this
because after "hibernation", I have no swap space and "swapon /dev/sda5"
fails with "invalid argument". To restore it, I have to "mkswap" again.
Here's a kern.log, I hope it's of any use.
