Hibernate a Sony Vaio PCG-FRV37 on Ubuntu
BTW, this is specific -or better yet, tested- to Lucid Lynx 32 bits...
Presto, the beast sleeps, or hibernates... Until you wake it up.
1- Logout Gnome
2- Swtich to Virtual Terminal
3- Login to the shell
4- Issue the commands:This last one kills the X Window Server.sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stoporsudo service gdm stop
5- And then, actually put the lappie to sleep:sudo pm-hibernate
Does this beats shutting it down? Not sure, since you are actually login out from your Gnome session there is not much of a speed gain, nor there is on the time it takes from waking up from hibernation. The only advantage I can think of is that the HDD make a few pulls during the "spin-up from hibernation" than from a full boot.
