power: Check if action is available before taking action (5.27 KB, patch)

Description Bastien Nocera 2012-11-22 16:27:03 UTC 
Hibernation is not available on my machine (swap size < RAM size)
This is shown correctly in the Power panel (grayed out option)

If Hibernation is selected for "critically low battery" (it is the default after all), g-s-d will warn that it will soon hibernate, which it cannot.

It should automatically fallback to suspending, or simply warning that everything will soon be lost and shutdown the machine in this case.

power: Check if action is available before taking action

Don't show a "About to hibernate" warning when we know the machine
cannot suspend, by taking into account the availability of the
requested action type before taking action.
