Public bug reported:
It is a laptop Samsung R510 with 4GB of memory and almost 9GB on a swap
partition, so not a swap file, a real partition. When I say "put the
machine in sleep-mode/hibernation", you hear the disk to its thing for
about 20 seconds or something like that and then I get an ata exception.
There is nothing wrong with my harddisk, since I can write to all the
other partitions just fine. When I reboot, I see "system resuming" from
my BIOS, and then I select Ubuntu in Grub and everything happens as if I
just rebooted, instead of hibernated.
I have the swap entry in my fstab.
On Ubuntu 7.something hibernation did work, so, someone somewhere has
broken it.
This is on Karmic, upgraded from Jaunty.

I got the advice of "reinstalling" from the CD, but if that is truly the way
Ubuntu advertises to its users to do upgrades, then I guess, it's no more
Ubuntu for me. Upgrades should be flawless. The upgrade from Jaunty to Karmic
was _far_ from that. Next time, if you release something, please wait until it
is done. For proof: look at the release notes list. If you don't think that
list is WAY too long, then we have a different idea about quality software.
Nothing on that list couldn't have been fixed. I don't mind "waiting" for an
upgrade an extra year, but if I get an upgrade, I want it to become better, not
worse.
