| rmg51 | great | 00:07 |
|---|---|---|
| rmg51 | no hibernate in 12.04 on Teddy's laptop | 00:08 |
| rmg51 | now I don't know if I should upgrade my laptop | 00:11 |
| jedijf | rmg51: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html | 00:35 |
| jedijf | fix teddy's first | 00:35 |
| rmg51 | doing it now | 00:35 |
| rmg51 | same thing I found | 00:36 |
| jedijf | rmg51: did it work? | 00:51 |
| rmg51 | not yet | 00:51 |
| rmg51 | I forget how to save in nano | 00:52 |
| EvilResistance | ctrl+w no? | 00:52 |
| EvilResistance | ctrl + o | 00:52 |
| EvilResistance | for "WriteOut" | 00:52 |
| rmg51 | not working | 00:54 |
| EvilResistance | are you using nano or vi? | 00:54 |
| rmg51 | they don't tell you where to save the file | 00:54 |
| EvilResistance | by default that is the case | 00:54 |
| EvilResistance | there is no 'Save As' | 00:54 |
| EvilResistance | if you're editing a file in a folder, and that file still exists and wasnt changed since you edited, it auto-overwrites | 00:55 |
| rmg51 | nano | 00:55 |
| EvilResistance | hm | 00:55 |
| EvilResistance | in nano it automatically asks where to save | 00:55 |
| EvilResistance | even if editing a current file | 00:55 |
| EvilResistance | you sure you dont see it in thhe bar at thebottom? | 00:55 |
| rmg51 | this is a new file | 00:55 |
| EvilResistance | it will be very close to the command-things | 00:55 |
| rmg51 | https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html | 00:55 |
| EvilResistance | ah, well your new file will be saved wherever pwd is | 00:56 |
| rmg51 | trying to get hibernation to work | 00:56 |
| EvilResistance | but it should ask what filename to use | 00:56 |
| EvilResistance | s/pwd is/pwd says you are/ | 00:56 |
| rmg51 | it's saved in home | 00:57 |
| EvilResistance | with the changes? | 00:57 |
| rmg51 | yes | 00:58 |
| EvilResistance | so cp the changed file(s) with sudo to wherever they go | 00:58 |
| rmg51 | where it goes is what I don't know | 00:58 |
| EvilResistance | You can also enable the hibernate option in the menus. To do that, use your favorite text editor to create /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla. Add the following to the file and save: | 00:59 |
| EvilResistance | i think its stated right in there dude | 00:59 |
| rmg51 | that's the part I don't think I fully understand | 01:00 |
| EvilResistance | how so? | 01:01 |
| EvilResistance | do this: sudo nano /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla | 01:01 |
| EvilResistance | then edit the file as it says to | 01:01 |
| EvilResistance | then save it | 01:01 |
| EvilResistance | voila, that file's been edited | 01:01 |
| EvilResistance | (if you don't edit with sudo, it wont save but will need to be saved elsewhere) | 01:01 |
| rmg51 | let me try again | 01:02 |
| EvilResistance | also, if you dont know what something means, you ask about it | 01:02 |
| rmg51 | I just did | 01:02 |
| EvilResistance | (and ask specifically about what you don't know, and not a roundabout thing)_ | 01:02 |
| jedijf | rmg51: control x | 01:02 |
| EvilResistance | right, ctrl+o to save, ctrl+x to exit nano | 01:03 |
| rmg51 | this is where I get messed up | 01:07 |
| rmg51 | I'm not sure what if anything I should name the file | 01:07 |
| rmg51 | should it be the whole fist string? | 01:08 |
| * EvilResistance facedesks | 01:09 | |
| EvilResistance | i'll let jedijf help you, i'm in an argument with a bugcontrol member | 01:09 |
| rmg51 | /etc/polkit I suck at terminal :P | 01:09 |
| jedijf | the whole thing the first part is the path, the last part is the filename | 01:19 |
| rmg51 | looks like it saved it right this time | 01:23 |
| rmg51 | it's there | 01:25 |
| rmg51 | just no hibernation | 01:25 |
| EvilResistance | might hav eto reboot first | 01:26 |
| EvilResistance | to refresh the settings | 01:26 |
| rmg51 | just tried with log out | 01:26 |
| rmg51 | didn't work | 01:27 |
| EvilResistance | can someone do me a favor? | 01:27 |
| EvilResistance | check and see if the quantal repos are responding | 01:27 |
| rmg51 | trying reboot | 01:27 |
| EvilResistance | rmg51: logout doesnt autorefresh system settings | 01:27 |
| EvilResistance | reboots do though | 01:27 |
| rmg51 | doing it now | 01:27 |
| EvilResistance | jedijf: can you check and see if the quantal repos respond to apt-get requests? building a chroot for quantal is 404ing | 01:29 |
| rmg51 | didn't work | 01:30 |
| jedijf | rmg51: you have to issue the command pm-blah blah | 01:30 |
| rmg51 | still no hibernation | 01:30 |
| rmg51 | not with the file | 01:30 |
| jedijf | did it show up in the power menu drop down? | 01:31 |
| rmg51 | it's supposed to bring it back to the shutdown menu | 01:31 |
| rmg51 | no | 01:31 |
| jedijf | yeah, i just read that | 01:31 |
| JonathanD | Evening. | 01:32 |
| rmg51 | got it | 01:41 |
| rmg51 | you need to save the file first then add the lines | 01:42 |
| rmg51 | I just reedited it and took the /etc/polkit...... line out | 01:43 |
| rmg51 | hibernation is now back on the menu | 01:43 |
| rmg51 | I keep telling everyone I suck at command line | 01:43 |
| rmg51 | works off the menu | 01:47 |
