how to fix hibernate on lubuntu 18.04












1














upgraded lubuntu 16.04 to 18.04 and hibernation stopped working. I used to hibernate by doing



systemctl hibernate



on 18.04 it seems like it does the hibernation, but when I load the os it gives me a new workspace and the old image is not loaded. This seems to be a bug.
Please, advise if anybody knows how to fix. I tried to report a bug on launchpad, but could not pass the paperwork requirements. the ubuntu bug report tool expects the bug to come from an app after os is loaded and cannot catch any bugs that happen during the load. see launchpad question #676281. anyway seems like



cat: /tmp/initrd/main/conf/conf.d/zz-auto-resume: No such file or directory



is the problem
Thanks

          to fix hibernate not working on lubuntu 18.04 you need to add a kernel parameter to the bootloader



          you would first edit grub:



          sudo nano /etc/default/grub


          and change GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash resume=/dev/sdXY"



          where /dev/sdXY is the swap partition



          save the file then update grub:



          sudo update-grub


          then update the initramfs:



          sudo update-initramfs -u


          now it should work when you use sudo systemctl hibernate



          edit: instead of using GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash resume=/dev/sdXY" you could use GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash resume=/dev/disk/by-uuid/X"



          replace X with the uuid of the swap partition which you could find using ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid

          • is there a way to test if the new grub works? also, is there a way to tell it that if the specified resume does not load then use the usual load from the hd? finally, if I do it and it gives me a black screen with failure, what is the way to revert? do I load the os from a usb? Really appreciate your help.

          • also, I think that using /dev/sdb is considered risky and UUID is encouraged. can you provide an example how to use the UUID?

          • Yee-haw. It works. I tried to vote up the solution, but it does not allow me because of low reputation.
