'Hibernate' 'reboots' machine :)

[Mario Splivalo]

I go to System-LogOut and then select Hibernate. Screen goes black
(which is a bit annoying - could it display some progress bar or just
the percentage counter?), and after a minute or so the laptop powers
off.

When I turn it back on, Ubuntu boots, it says 'loading modules', then
the percentage counter starts restoring the RAM from the disk image, and
afte that's done the laptop does the reboot. And everything I had
working on is gone.

I've been browsing trough /var/log/syslog and /var/log/messages, but
didn't seem to find any usefull (at least for me) information.

So, I'd appreciate anything that could help me have a functional
'hibernate' option.

The laptop is IBM (Lenovo) ThinkPad R52. 

I used to have Gericom Hummer, on which hibernate functioned well.
