I recently upgraded from Ubuntu 13.10 with Cinnamon 2 to Ubuntu 14.04 with Cinnamon 2.2 I no longer have the option to Suspend from the shutdown menu. Closing the lid will not suspend the system either (I have this setup to suspend when on battery). I have Mate on the same system and if I login to a Mate session suspend is available and closing the lid suspends.

One way could be create a .desktop that can do the suspend action using a command.

Please see the necessary information to create a .desktop here: https://askubuntu.com/a/102903/352251

Then read about the potential commands to produce a supend or hibernate here: How can I suspend/hibernate from command line?

As an alternative you can install this applet: http://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/applets/view/175
