    Re: Hibernate/Suspend missing from new desktop menu

    Yesterday, 7-Jun-2010, I ran update manager, which updated the kernel and a couple dozen other pkgs.
    I have been doing this about every five days hoping for a cure.
    This time it solved the issue for me. Looks like they closed some of the related bugs. Yahoooo!

    Re: Hibernate/Suspend missing from new desktop menu

    Following the first reboot for a couple of weeks, this problem has appeared for me. It's a Lenovo z61m laptop. I tried captwiggum's tactic to kill and restart gnome-power-manager, and the resulting log is attached.

    The restart hung for quite a long time after line 179:
    Code:
    TI:07:41:01	TH:0x85166d8	FI:gpm-engine.c	FN:gpm_engine_get_warning_time,158
     - time zero, falling back to percentage for battery

    Using pm-suspend from the command line works (but doesn't lock the screen).

    I'm also running Compiz with the desktop cube.

    I would just add that the only options that I get from the 'Log Out' button are 'Log Out' and 'Switch User' - I don't even have power off.

    I forgot to mention I'm talking about the 'Log Out' button in Cairo-dock. I will go look up problems with Cairo as well.

    Reboot did not change anything.

    Interesting. I have a regular Gnome panel as well, and I added the Shutdown button to that panel. That one comes up correctly, with all four buttons.

    So this is apparently something to do with Cairo or its Logout plug-in. I tried removing it and adding it back in, but no change.

    This does not seem to be a Gnome-power-manager or gnome-panel problem. I will pursue this in the Cairo direction.
