(In reply to comment #3 from Holger Macht)
The message about a not available S3 sleep mode (suspend to ram) is correct then. Suspend to disk, aka hibernate, is ACPI S4.
then, where is the correct place to tell the computer to hibernate when I press the power button?
It should be gnome-power-manager or kpowersave.
Does 'powersave -U' work as user whenever it doesn't work with
gnome-power-manager?
cer@nimrodel:~> powersave -U User is not allowed for hal-power-hibernate according to PolicyKit.
This seems like the root cause. Does powersave -U work as root?
/etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf is the default, almost empty file.
This (/usr/share/PolicyKit/policy/hal-power.policy) should be responsible.
Who/what is lying to powersave to tell it that this machine can not hibernate?
Nobody does. It just tells that _S3_ (s2ram) is not available, which is correct. Please also post the output of ck-list-sessions.
