Thanks. It's possible on Gutsy too. However, on Gutsy, my desktop 
doesn't hibernate anymore. And my laptop, who can't hibernate but used 
to sleep fine, no doesn't sleep at all anymore.

Anybody knows what changes in Gutsy could have lead to these big 
regressions, and against which package I should file a bug?

Thanks,
Loïc
