Hellou,
I tried to look for somebody with a similar problem on the arch forum, but with no success, that is why I'm writing here.
After a recent upgrade when a click on the shutdown menu in gnome the hibernate and suspend buttons are no longer present. If I try to suspend or hibernate from console it has no effect. My /var/log/pm-powersave.log and pm-suspend.log are attached to this mail.
Any idea what went wrong?
You will need hal from testing. The policykit package in extra doesn't contain hal configuration, as that belongs to the hal package.
Thank you for your advice. I installed hal from testing. The buttons are there. But when I try to suspend or hibernate the screen goes blank (as usually) but after that the gnome screen saver apears and then gnome prompts me to enter my password (as if I turned my computer on after the hibernation). After entering the password nothings happens. after inspecting the logs I found that there is an error that has somethuing to do with wicd. So I tried removeing that package (not using it anyway). It helped ...
Thanks again for that hal tip Jan. Tom
