Maybe I missed the prior part of the thread? I cannot decipher what 
problem you are facing.

First, do you have a swap partition defined? Hibernate, unlike Suspend, 
REQUIRES a swap partition.

Second, have you requested hibernate (e.g. on lid close, assuming you 
are using a laptop) under System-->Preferences-->Power Management?

And the rest will depend on what your problem / observations are.
