Bug Description
-------
TO RE-ENABLE HIBERNATE: If the hibernate option is supported by your system and you need it, you can re-enable it as follows: https:/
You may be also interested in subscribing to the bug #882040, which tracks the implementation of a configuration tool to toggle hibernate and suspend.
-------
I'd like to propose a change in the design of Power preferences in the GNOME control center: https:/
Instead of going through the "certification" path, we can simply disable the options about suspend/hibernate if it's not supported on the current hardware (we have API for this in upower).
I think this solution is more scalable, as we do not need to maintain a database with "certified" hardware. Also, we can add a button or a informative text when suspend/hibernate doesn't work to guide the users about what to do.

The "disable suspend unless it has been certified to work" on that specification doesn't seem really practical indeed, suspend works on most laptop configs why would it be disabled?
