Durn. > Today, I finally did what I should've done four days ago: STW on "hibernate setting xfce" Google gave me some nice threads on xfconf-query: http://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=4781 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1830829 No man entry for xfconf-query, but --help gives enough clues for what I might have needed in another case, but not here. setting the hibernate setting to true with xfconf-query -c xfce4-session -np '/shutdown/ShowHibernate' -t 'bool' -s 'true' didn't help. But this topic give me the clue I really needed: http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=197&t=97684 Really simple. on4aa pointed out that I need a functional swap for hibernate to work. Since I had moved both /home and swap, I thought maybe I should check, and, sure enough, swapon -s listed no active swap. Checking /etc/fstab (Significantly cleaner on this netbook with a fresh f16 than on my aging tower with an install that I've been upgrading since F10 or before.) showed the entry for swap, so I tried swapon -a and got a message about the UUID not matching. Yep. Never fixed it after the move. I guess the dd on the /home partition restored the UUID, since it matches what is in fstab. Anyway, ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid showed me the new UUID, and I checked the swap partition again with gparted because my memory just ain't what it used to be, and edited the fstab swap entry with the new UUID and now swapon -a turns the swap on and, yay! there is my hibernate button. Thanks for the suggestions, Rick and Bruno. -- Joel Rees -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
