    Here's another app. This one allows you to select which sleep/hibernate mode you want to use and allows a little flexibility as well.

    Thanks for the tip. Will try that.

    Do you happen to know why my the tap to click sometimes does not work after rebooting, I have to re-enable it and then it works.

    Haven't seen that yet. You might try trashing the touchpad prefs and maybe repair permissions. A few years ago when Apple released the two finger tap for right click feature my MBP (or was it PB?) would forget and I had to reselect it.
