How to Re-Enable Hibernate in Ubuntu 12.04

Hey folks! For those who are using Ubuntu there is a tutorial to enable hibernate feature. We know that suspend doesn't work without graphics driver and even after installing graphics driver suspend may work but hibernate option will not be available in the Menu bar. To enable this, I have found a tutorial in HowtoGeek website, which I'll show here along with the screenshots.

Steps:

1. Open terminal (shift+alt+t) and paste this code:

sudo pm-hibernate



2. After that, paste this code in the terminal again:

gksu gedit /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla






3. Something like the picture below will pop up. Inside it paste the following code:

 [Enable Hibernate]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate
ResultActive=yes 


4. Save it (ctrl+s).

5. Wolla! Restart your systhem! You will have got hibernate feature again:
