hibernate.sh uses unsupported s2disk options

[bigfish]

Binary package hint: acpi-support

I am new to ubuntu, just installed 7.04, and trying to get hibernation functioning. It appears that there is a bug in the /etc/acpi/hibernate.sh script, which contains:

    if [ -f /etc/usplash.conf ]; then
        . /etc/usplash.conf
        /sbin/s2disk -x "$xres" -y "$yres" $DEVICE
    else
        /sbin/s2disk $DEVICE
    fi

I have a /etc/usplash.conf file, presumably because I installed with the VGA option set to 1024x768-32:

rjf@carcharias:/etc/acpi$ cat /etc/usplash.conf
# Usplash configuration file
xres=1024
yres=768

The result of running with those options is:

root@carcharias:/etc/acpi# /sbin/s2disk -x "1024" -y "768" /dev/disk/by-uuid/e00a4a01-e39d-4426-ab95-b4b389ea3394
Usage: suspend [-f config][resume_device]

Since s2disk gives a usage error with these options, hibernation fails. [Re]moving /etc/usplash.conf allows hibernation to work normally.
