Hi.
After updating to kernel 7.0.14-201, my PCs stopped hibernating. The previous kernel 7.0.13-200 could hibernate and resume without problems.
Any advice on how to hibernate again?
Synopsis
After updating to kernel 7.0.14-201, the system cannot hibernate. The systemctl hibernate command returns an error message as shown below :
seiichi@fedora:~$ uname -a
Linux fedora 7.0.14-201.fc44.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Wed Jul 1 13:34:38 UTC 2026 x86_64 GNU/Linux
seiichi@fedora:~$ systemctl hibernate
Call to Hibernate failed: Sleep verb 'hibernate' is not configured or configuration is not supported by kernel
The “Call to Hibernate failed: Sleep verb …” message is known as a sign of secure boot. While secure boot is off, I am getting this message.
Expectation
It hibernates as before.
How I have set up hibernation
I have followed the procedure in Fedora 43 Hibernation Setup · GitHub .
With kernel 7.0.13-200, it hibernated and resumed smoothly.
seiichi@fedora:~$ uname -a
Linux fedora 7.0.13-200.fc44.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Jun 19 22:51:30 UTC 2026 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Additional information
Not only the PC with an Intel 11th gen CPU, but also the PC with an Intel 12th gen CPU has this problem.
After the update, I rolled back the kernel from the boot menu. But I could not solve this problem. Software outside the kernel might prevent hibernation…

Update. Bitwarden was preventing hibernation.

bug
desktop
### Steps To Reproduce
Prerequisites:
- System must have swap/swapfile configur… ed to hibernate, as well as other distro-specific hibernate configuration if any (e.g. SELinux on Fedora systems)
Steps:
1. Open Bitwarden (RPM, Flatpak, AppImage) with an account logged in
2. Run `systemctl hibernate` or `systemctl suspend-then-hibernate` in the terminal
### Expected Result
Hibernate & `suspend-then-hibernate` succeed without errors, both when called from the terminal using `systemctl` and when called from the DE-configured triggers.
Additionally, when Bitwarden is up and running, `/sys/power/disk` should look normal:
```
cat /sys/power/disk
[platform] shutdown reboot suspend test_resume
```
This was the behavior in the past, until v2026.5.0 (and I believe v2026.6.0?).
### Actual Result
Hibernate & `suspend-then-hibernate` fails:
```
> systemctl hibernate
Call to Hibernate failed: Sleep verb 'hibernate' is not configured or configuration is not supported by kernel
> systemctl suspend-then-hibernate
Call to SuspendThenHibernate failed: Sleep verb 'suspend-then-hibernate' is not configured or configuration is not supported by kernel
```
Additionally, `/sys/power/disk` outputs the following:
```
cat /sys/power/disk
[disabled]
```
This is the behavior in the current version (v2026.6.1).
As of right now, exiting Bitwarden restores the correct `/sys/power/disk` entries (shown in video), and after this, hibernate & `suspend-then-hibernate` succeeds (not shown in video).
### Screenshots or Videos

### Additional Context
Tested on 3 devices running Fedora Linux 44 (Silverblue) over the past 2 days. I first observed this behavior after updating my Silverblue systems on July 3; previously my systems were on June 26 Silverblue deployments (I believe my June 26 deployments had v2026.6.0 RPM).
Downgrading to a previous system deployment with the v2026.6.0 RPM installed did not fix the issue. Flatpak and AppImage versions also causes the issue on my 3 machines.
I did observe in one machine that when the Flatpak is freshly installed, and no account has been logged in yet, `/sys/power/disk` looks normal - not `[disabled]` - even when Bitwarden is running. However, once an account has been logged in, `/sys/power/disk` shows `[disabled]`.
---
The RPM file & AppImage files downloaded from the Bitwarden website and/or Bitwarden Github; Flatpak package is installed from Flathub.

### Issue Tracking Info
- [x] I understand that work is tracked outside of GitHub. A PR will be linked to this issue should one be opened to address it, but Bitwarden doesn't use fields like "assigned", "milestone", or "project" to track progress.
As a tentative workaround, add followings to ~/.bashrc solves this problem.
