I have a laptop with Ubuntu 12.04, I want to be able to play music with it while it is on hibernate mode, the problem is: When I close my laptop it goes to hibernation mode (I know this is a default and I know where to change this, but I can't change whether the system should play music during hibernation or not) While I'm playing music, it stops the music as well (this too sounds logical because
When I close the lid to my laptop in windows it will sleep but when it comes time to hibernate it will wake up, manual hibernation will just black out the screen for a few seconds. Same thing happens with Ubuntu 11.10. I'm on acer aspire 7741G. it didnt use to do this.

Two days ago, I think since I received security updates
Is there a way to have KDEWallet close when I lock my laptop?

Hi,
My partner is running 9.10 as her only OS on a Toshiba satellite L300. She would like to enable hibernation when the lid is closed. I have gone into the power management and enabled it there on battery and AC, but when the lid is closed the laptop does not go into hibernation.
