Preliminary ubuntu 16.04 dual boot on a disk that also runs windows 10 hibernate works in windows 10 swap partition is the same size as RAM

Problem When I run sudo pm-hibernate from the terminal nothing happens. The line advances as though the command has been run but there's no action. If i try to check the log in /var/log/ there's no file for pm-hibernate. However there is a log for pm-suspend.

i've checked the pm-suspend file but it is not recording any information when i try to hibernate. the pm-suspend file gets updated when i run sudo pm-suspend from the terminal.

Inspect /var/log/pm*, read the man page for, and run pm-is-supported – waltinator Jun 02 '16 at 01:52
pm-is-supported shows that hibernate is supported, forgot to mention that – kepposet Jun 03 '16 at 03:33

@waltinator pm-is-supported --hibernate has an empty output too. kek. – phil294 Mar 07 '17 at 11:58

Read man pm-is-supported. pm-is-supported returns its answer in its exit status ($? in bash). Follow your pm-is-supported --hibernate command immediately with echo $? to se the status. – waltinator Mar 07 '17 at 15:57
