Here's what I get: (mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:~)$ pm-is-supported --suspend (mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:~)$ echo $? 0 (mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:~)$ pm-is-supported --hibernate (mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:~)$ echo $? 0 (mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:~)$ pm-is-supported --suspend-hybrid (mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:~)$ echo $? 1 Though I'm questioning this last once since I tried to do: pm-is-supported --suspend-hybrid && echo $? and it never showed the RC, telling me the command itself failed. > > Any ideas on what I should or could do to get suspend to work again? > > It's a PITA to have to hard shutdown the laptop when I accidentally shut > > the lid. > > I hope this feature (closing lid causes suspend) can be switched off > somehow.
