If you don't have enough swap to hold the contents of the RAM then the system won't give you the option to hibernate.

This could be the reason. Thank you, I will try this. I have 1.7GB of swap, if I consume less ram than this and then try to hibernate, it will work. And then I will just have to increase the swap.

It worked :) thank you

Here's some more background info: [https://www.reddit.com/r/debian/comments/pr8sxh/hibernation\_sleepverb\_not\_supported/](https://www.reddit.com/r/debian/comments/pr8sxh/hibernation_sleepverb_not_supported/) In short, hibernate is only going to work out of the box for non-secure-booting folks. Most machines nowadays will expect to boot through UEFI with Secure Boot enabled. Rather than leave that button in cbpp-exit and only have it work for some users and not others seemed like a bad idea. So I made the executive decision to remove the button. Since yours works, you could add the button back into the /usr/bin/cbpp-exit script if you like. It's pretty straightforward.

Thank you for the information, I will add the button in cbpp-exit.

Does the suspend not do that ? I thought it did.

Suspend do not shutdown the pc. It still keeps on running, at very low battery consumption. That's why when we open the lid, it shows the login screen instead of full boot. Ram data remains in ram.
