No keyring lock at hibernation

By dooblem on Thursday 10 December 2009, 20h36 - Linux

Under Ubuntu, the keyring is automatically locked by default while hibernating. When starting Ubuntu after hibernation, it prompts you for the keyring password.

To disable this lock:

  1. Go in Applications > System Tools > Configuration Editor
  2. Uncheck /apps/gnome-power-manager/lock/gnome_keyring_hibernate

Note: you can also launch the config editor with the gconf-editor command.

Reference:

  • A "lock" search in the configuration editor.

USwSusp under Ubuntu Karmic

By dooblem on Wednesday 2 December 2009, 21h53 - Linux

Userspace Software Suspend is an alternative to the default hibernation method in the Linux kernel. It adds several interesting features like compression, encryption... Compression allows for hibernation with a smaller Swap partition. It also decreases the wake up time of your system!

Here is how to install USwSusp on Ubuntu Karmic. Should also work with a recent Debian.

Install the uswsusp package:

aptitude install uswsusp

You can now hibernate with the s2disk command as root.

To hibernate from Ubuntu menu or by key shortcut, then change the following line in the /etc/pm/config.d/00sleep_module file:

SLEEP_MODULE=uswsusp

And test your hibernation!!
