Title: Re-enable the missing Hibernate Option in Ubuntu 12.04
Post by: aneeshs on April 29, 2017, 10:08:36 pm

By default, Ubuntu 12.04 doesn't have a hibernate option and it can be re-enabled if the hardware supports hibernation. For that,

1. Create the file:

   vi /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.desktop.pkla

2. Add the lines:

    [Re-enable hibernate by default]
    Identity=unix-user:*
    Action=org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate
    ResultActive=yes

3. Save the file, restart the machine and new menu item should appear under the system button in upper right corner
