Pinguy OS 14.04 - Get hibernation back to work and show

$

Hi all,

I have been using Pinguy OS 12.04 so far and hibernation worked fine (as long as there was enough space in the swap partition).

But with Pinguy OS 14.04 it is gone on the same piece of hardware - from the shut down menu and also
Code:
sudo pm-hibernate
does not do the trick.
It does hibernate though but it throws a couple of messages and it does not resume. The hibernation to disk is a must have feature for me.

Any ideas? How to bring it back? In the menu and in function?
There are so many various suggestions out there - not sure if any can solve the problem.
Can anyone help?

Thanks,
LNT

one additional note:
I just tried
Code:
sudo pm-hibernate
and it worked. The system did hibernate alright and and I could wake it up - right away.
But one thing I noted - the grub screen came up - where I am supposed to select from what partition or version etc. I want to boot.

I left it all at its default - it the grace period passed and then the resume went on successfully.
I maybe was just meant to be lucky here - but I really need (and the system itself) to be stable and hibernation back to work.

I also would like to see the option back in the menu.

Thanks,
LNT

BTW it is an AMD system (Phenom II) running a ATI 7850 discrete graphic card (at the moment on radeon) with about 8 GB RAM.

It's me again:

I guess I was not thinking hard enough - since it is a gnome shell - well, a brief check revealed the following:

So that brings the option back in the shut down menu. Ok.
But what the rest or the doubtful stability?

Code:
sudo pm-is-supported --suspend-hybrid && echo "hybrid suspend is supported" || echo "your system doesn't support hybrid suspend"
Gives me a yes - that even hybrid suspend is supported.
What the heck is that anyway!?

Thanks,
LNT
