Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't fix it, because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem.
 We have instructions on debugging some types of problems. http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures
At a minimum, we need:
1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem,
2. the behavior you expected, and
3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
Thanks!

I download image rsync://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/ubuntu-netbook-remix/daily-live/current/jaunty-netbook-remix-i386.img , wrote it to usb flash, and boot my eeepc901 from that flash.

It loads and work (I can browse internet with my wifi, made photo with build-in webcam, and so on).
Then I want to enter pc into hybernation (power-save mode when data from ram writes to hdd, and power swichws off completely).

my eeepc have 1GB ram, and live-image found and use my 2 GB swap file.

I go into preferences -> powermanagement -> on battery power, and try to choose action "when lid is closed", and pull-down list contain "nothing", "blank screen", "suspend" and "shutdown". No "hybernation".

When I choose "quit" button on right pane of "ubuntu netbook desktop", and see that only 3 of shutdown options - "sutdown", "restart" and "suspend", no "hybernation".

I can provide additional info, if you ask me, what.

Since this report have a long time without activity, could you check (if is possible) in latest version included in Karmic if this issue is still happening? Thanks in advance.

As I understand the reason was eeepc can't correctly hybernate if boot device work on usb (including internal card readers).
Now I am not sure this bug should exist at all.
