Yes, that includes Kubuntu. They both have the same inner-workings.

Problem fixed. I forgot to put a little 'config-' in front of it.
Thanks for pointing that out.

Ok... first of all, it's fdisk -l, not fdisk =l. Make sure you typed it in right.
If you know your swap is /dev/hda2, that should work. But when you compile the kernel, make sure you add the filewriter support just in case. This will make it write to a file on a normal partition rather than swap.

Just do a plain fdisk -l. That will list your swap. df -h doesn't show the swap on my system, either.

(oh, and make sure you're root. Doing it as a normal user doesn't do anything)

Could you post the 'kernel' boot line in your Grub menu.lst file?

By any chance, are you using the proprietary NVidia drivers (I noticed you have a Dell laptop, mine has an NVidia card)? If you are, try using the open source 'nv' driver. The proprietary version doesn't work with hibernation without a minor hack.
