If there is a sleep light, or if the power light "pulses", for example, then the machine hasn't hibernated. Next, see if your system is configured for "hybrid sleep". Hybrid Sleep is like sleep, but the system is additionally saved to disk. That way, if the battery dies, a resume-from-hibernation can be performed. Check /etc/systemd/login.conf in case any of the Handle* options are set to hybrid-sleep. > > Patrick > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST@lists.debian.org > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
