I have Linux Mint 18.3 installed and it appears not to have hibernation enabled:
$ sudo systemctl hibernate
Failed to hibernate system via logind: Sleep verb not supported
Is this because my slightly obscure hardware does not have resources that Linux knows how to talk to, or is there a way that I can configure things so that I can, ultimately, hit the power button and have the computer hibernate?
How large the swap space is? And does it use any secure boot and other stuff (BIOS settings)? I believe this is enabled by default in Mint. – Epoxy – 2018-03-24T01:34:20.423
@Epoxy "How large the swap space is?" Bingo, that's my problem. I need to repartition... Please restate your comment as a question so I can accept it. – Christos Hayward – 2018-03-25T12:08:46.050
Sounds good! I have posted this as the answer. Thank you! :) @Jonathan – Epoxy – 2018-03-28T12:42:02.100
