Hi. Why were removed suspend/hibernate options from gnome-power-manager 2.28.0?
Interesting question. It's something we inherited from GNOME upstream (check commit http://git.gnome.org/cgit/gnome-power-manager/commit/?id=b36e51d35e7a816ca4b... ).
The rationale MIGHT be that those actions are available from the 'Shut down' menu, but I'm not sure about that.

And could you enable it by default? KDE has these actions from shut down menu and from power management also. Thanks.

I don't see the big deal about this change. It's three clicks to initate suspend/hibernate from the Computer menu now, and personally I think that makes more sense than a small power icon at the bottom in the middle of the notification area.

Having the icon is optional, I think. And once I have the icon, I prefer it doing things. Hibernating is one of those things, and it is useful for me doing it on one click. It is faster when living, for example.
Actually, I never power off from the power-off menu inside a session. For me, /that/ is the useless menu >:-) First I log off, then power off.

FWIW, it's certainly easy to enable that back by default (it's just one line in the gconf2-branding-openSUSE package). I have no strong opinion on whether we should do it or not, so by default I would stay with upstream's behavior. But if many people feel strong about it, that's something we can change.
(it's also bad for upstream to change this kind of stuff so late)

I vote for enabling by default. I got used to this options and really appreciate it back. I believe i´m not alone :-)
