Just a short wrap-up: I can now hibernate and resume. Here is what I did: I added this line to /etc/sudoers adigulla ALL = (root) NOPASSWD:/usr/sbin/pm-hibernate (adigulla is my user name). That allows me to run /usr/sbin/pm-hibernate as root without having to give a password. Then I created a desktop icon with the name "Hibernate" and the command sudo /usr/sbin/pm-hibernate To fixate the icon in the lower right corner, I added a "mini program" called "Folder" ("Ordner" in German). I created a new folder $HOME/Hibernate and configured the mini program to use it. I dragged the mini program where I wanted it. Then I dragged the desktop icon from before into the new folder. That gave me a nice big button to hibernate my system. Which solves the "permission denied" problem. The other problem (resume failing), I couldn't track down. After switching to text mode in Grub2 and enabling logging in /etc/suspend.conf and disabling the splash, resume started to work again.
