My Ubuntu 12.04 is missing Hibernate option so after searching a little on Google I came to know that this can solve my problem

sudo nano /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla

Fill it with this

[Re-enable hibernate by default]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate
ResultActive=yes

Here is the link : How to enable hibernation?

After doing this I restarted my system. when the system booted it hanged ike anything No mouse movement no terminal no nothing. I waited for more than 1 hour Hibernate option appeared but i was not able to use my system anymore. any ideas ?

One possible cause of being unable to hibernate is if you encrypted your home directory (and with it your swap partition).
