## Configuration

### HP Compaq 8510w

Follow the steps outlined in Suspend and hibernate#Hibernation. The suspend to disk process works correctly but the laptop does not power itself off. To fix this create the following file:

    /etc/systemd/system/sleep.conf

    [Sleep]
    HibernateMode=shutdown

This file tells Systemd to write `shutdown` instead of `platform` to `/sys/power/disk` before writing `disk` to `/sys/power/state`.
