Bug Description
Fresh install of Precise using the beta ISO and with all the upgrades applied since then.
Don't have the menu option to hibernate; only suspend. And the system settings -> power utility shows hibernate greyed out on the drop-downs.
LVM
System used to run a 2009 release of ubuntu which is now out of support, and was built using logical volume manager.
(hibernate worked on the original build)
As I wanted to retain some filesystems, continued support of LVM was required.
So, I added lvm to the usb boot image, and also added it to the installed machine via chroot.
It was, however, a clean install - the '/', '/boot', and '/home' filesystems were specified in the installer.
my research has identified the following
1. I am running the i915 driver referenced in Bug #961932 and so could be susceptible to that memory corruption bug
2. Bug #954668 relates to hibernation on precise; but that machine suspends to disk, but doesn't restore from it. I can't suspend this to disk.
I have now tripped over:

ie Bug #812394 - which I need to investigate further.
