Easiest way to Hibernate Linux Mint?

Post by Ty24071230730 »

Hello! I love Mint but I use it on a laptop and i typically use it for about 10 minutes, and then the next day it's dead. Sounds like hibernation is not built in; what's the easiest way to add it for beginners?

Hi,
Simple question, simple answer :D . Read the tutos :
- hibernation with swapfile : viewtopic.php?f=42&t=284100
- hibernation with swap partition : viewtopic.php?f=42&t=273202

Good reading, Mint lover :wink: .

Thank you! swapfile worked! (it takes only about 5 min to set up) Wish it came preinstalled!
