I have this issue with 2-6-20-16 when hibernate stopped working and would just bounce back to the screen saver. I finally tracked this down to my swap partition failing to load as the UUID had changed.
After running blkid and editing /etc/fstab with the new UUID, swapon -a loaded swap. I hibernated ok, but then could not resume. I had no swap again and found the UUID had changed again and did so on every reboot ! The following seems to work and stops my swap partition UUID from changing edit the file '/etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume' (ie sudo vi /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume) and updated the line that begins 'RESUME=UUID= .... ' with the new swap partition UUID. edit the swap entry in /etc/fstab with the new swap partition UUID 'sudo update-initramfs -u' to update the intitrd with the new UUID. I've hibernated correctly a few times now. -- [Feisty] Swap partition receives new UUID https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/105490 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
