☩ Walking in Light with Christ – Faith, Computing, Diary

upgradeI’m using Debian Testing/Unstable (Squeeze /Sid) on my notebook Thinkpad R61.
Every time I do apt-get update && apt-get upgrade or aptitude update / aptitude upgrade. I end up with problems with my notebook hibernate functions not working.
In other words, after most of my desktop system updates takes place my hbernate function on my laptop stops working.

In order to solve this hibernate problem I do completely purge out the hibernate package of my system and then install it over again. />Thus to fix this shitty hibernate issue I execute:

debian:~# dpkg --purge hibernate
debian:~# apt-get install hibernate

Maybe I had to take the time and report this as a bug in debian bug tracking system.
Hope this tip helps to somebody.
