I tried the command

sudo s2disk 

but the OS said command not found so I went and installed

sudo apt-get install uswsusp

now the command worked, and the computer did hibernate, but it failed to resume.

I also installed

gnome-shell-extensions-alternative-status-menu

hoping that hibernate would show up in the menu, but it didn't. (I did press the Alt key)

in case you have any graphics card in your system make sure your currently installed driver has no hibernate/suspend issues.

I had similar issue of machine failing to resume, installing the latest graphics driver (catalyst 11.12 in my case) fixed it.

when you hold key ALT, and click power, you will see poweroff transe to hibernate, enjoy
