SonWon: if '/proc/swaps' is empty, you have no Swap partition. The swap partition is used for hibernation and must be at least as large as the RAM in your machine.

Did you create a swap partition during install?

Can you post:

  cat /etc/fstab

  sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda (or /dev/hda, whichever is your main disk)

  sudo file -s /dev/sdaX (eg. /dev/sda3, or hda7, depending on what is mentioned in your 'fstab' or in the partition table shown by 'fdisk').
