Hibernate instead sleep when idle
I have Linux Mint 13 Cinnamon and have tested and enabled hibernation. However, I cannot find how to make the computer hibernate instead going to sleep when it is idle.

Re: Hibernate instead sleep when idle
Hiya. I look forward to reading the responses to your questions. I installed Mint 13 Cinnamon this weekend & only have "suspend" option - I'm not sure if this is the same as "hibernate". Go well meantime.
Re: Hibernate instead sleep when idle
There are some hibernate options if you open Software Manager from the menu and type search word 'hibernate'. I'm trying this now.

install qshutdown. This is a small gui run from the command line that lets you timeout to hibernate. Trying it now.
qshutdown problem: computer would not reboot, and stay stuck on the Linux Mint splash screen qshutdown is not a Linux Mint package, so there is no apport support for it. Backk to square one (after I just reinstalled my os).
I think the solution involves some knowledge of hibernate vs. pm-hibernate. The reboot problem is the one at this link: [url]http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1970589[/url]. Although this link doesn't explain it in terms of using qshutdown, it is the same error at reboot: 'Could N0t Stat The Name /dev/dm-0' . I think maybe there must be a file within the source code of qshutdown where the package hibernate can be replaced by pm-hibernate.
I believe the source code is in this bigger package:
