I DO wish they would fix their UUID method to allow the OS to find the swap 
partition so hibernate would properly work with it.  Either that or remove 
hibernate from the options.  Suspend seems to work and uses very little 
battery while suspended.  Maybe swap needs looked at itself as with the 
current UUID style of doing things the OS can't find it.
