Apparently this isn't a problem right now.  I can't hibernate at all 
now.  The only issue I can think of that might of caused this problem is 
that I resized some of the partitions on my hard drive the the UID of the 
swap partition has changed.  Now it doesn't restart from hibernation 
(which seems to work fine), but goes back to the login screen.  

Any ideas on how to fix this so I can get back to the problem of fixing 
the abrupt stop on critical power?  

Thanks.
