1) There are two scripts to suspend from console: "pm-suspend" and
"pm-suspend-hybrid" , both in package pm-utils.
When I suspend using xfpm using the notification area icon, I have found
that the "pm-suspend" script is called by default .
That script does not work on my machine, but if I rename
pm-suspend-hybrid to pm-suspend the suspend process using xfpm works again.
But renaming a file is not a user friendly way of selecting the suspend
method.
Maybe it would be possible to allow the user to select the suspend
method (pm-suspend or pm-suspend-hybrid) in the applet, is there only
one kind of dbus suspend call available?
If so maybe we should notify this to upower package mantainer.
2) This is a wish. I would like to setup the xfpm to suspend my computer
when plugged and hybernate when running on batteries. Is this possible?
