Strange. I never reboot, only use hibernation. I've been doing that for years and never had any problem.

You might want to share your setup then.

My HP Pavillon with windows hibernates reliable today, my very old netbook acer with Ubuntu/LXDE did so, too (but that was years ago).

Nowdays I gave up with linux laptops to even enable it, as it is quite complicated to set it up when you dual boot and use encryption. And after I did set it up, it failed over 50% of times on various devices so I did not bother anymore.

Same, the main instabilities come when I go out of hibernation with changed hardware, ie. haven't plugged back the mouse or changed the display from desk to meeting room
