Bug Description

Binary package hint: hal

in /usr/lib/hal/scripts/linux/hal-system-power-hibernate-linux, the script has the wrong path coded for uswsusp ('/usr/sbin/s2disk') instead of '/sbin/s2disk'); this causes it to never be called. What would be even better (and should be applied upstream) is if this script just used 'which' to find the file although this might have security implications.

Security-wise this is fine since those script have a trusted $PATH.
