[Bug 555065] [NEW] Suspend-to-Disk fails because of insufficient swap space

[okurz]

Public bug reported:

Trying Suspend-to-Disk fails when not enoug space is available on the swap partition.
An obvious problem, but maybe the power management script can check if enough swap space is available before trying to hibernate. The problem appeared after upgrading the system memory from 2 to 4GB while the swap partition is kept at the (previously correct) size of 2GB. Activating "Turn off computer->Suspend to Disk" fails after some time with a black window and a message in text-console showing "Not enough space in swap partition" (or something similar). So far I did not try to reproduce this problem.
