Dear Jeremy

Many thanks for coming back and excuse my late answer.

I've made actually some tests with my current Ubuntu 9.10 installation
as well as with the just released beta version.

With my current installation hibernation works. Ubuntu will switch off the machine and will recover from the hibernation. There is just one effect, which appears at least on my machine:
After waking up from the hibernation mode, Ubuntu "lost" my second hard disk. So if I go with nautilus and look at my second hard disk I receive an error message.

I tried to run "sudo mount -a", but that did not help.
Then I tried "ls /dev/sd*" and recognized, that all /dev/sda* entries are there - however no /dev/sdb* entries. Instead of them there are /dev/sdc* entries and if I mount /dev/sdc I see my second hard disk again. 

Once I reboot my machine, everything is back to normal: My second hard
disk gets automatically mounted and I can see the content.

I am using UUID's in fstab so I should be fine here - however I was able
to repeat above behaviour

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
# for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name
# devices that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).

With the beta version I did not had success to test hibernation. That
might be, since I've used the Live CD - or better I created a live USB
device using the Live ISO. Running a live session you usually do not
have a swap device required for storing the memory content. So I used
swapon and used the swap device of my regular installation on the first
hard disk. I started hibernation and the system writes down the memory
content. However starting the live CD/USB session ended always in a new
boot and the dialog box, which asks you to continue with the Live image
or to start the installation.

This behavior might be related to the usage of the live image- so
hibernation might actually work, once I install the beta version.

Today I have not decided to install the beta - although the live image
works so far very well. If I do so, I'll let you know about testing
hibernation with the beta release.

Hi Matthias,

This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in
it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try
with the latest development release of Ubuntu?  ISO CD images are
available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a
Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal).  It will automatically
gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux 352932

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would
be great.  It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the
issue.  Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds .  Once
you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-
testing' tag.  This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon
next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and
deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text.  Please let us know your
results.

Thanks in advance.
