Javier Jardón (jjardon) wrote : Disable suspend/hibernate option when they are not supported

Id like to proposse a change in the design of Power preferences in the GNOME control center: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Power

Instead going throuh the "certification" path, we can simply disable the options about suspend/hibernate if Its not supported in 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 doesnt work to guide the users about what to do.
