How do I get 12.04 to recognize swap partition so that I can hibernate?
- by Kayla
I justed installed 12.04 and used gparted to erase and enlarge my swap partition.  When I rebooted, gparted said that the file partition for the swap was unknown.  Gparted doesn't let me change the file partition to "linux-swap".  It does let me change it to NTFS, but when I reboot, it goes back to "unknown".  Thanks in advance for your help.
