I have this behaviour on my 765L if a PCMCIA card is inserted _and_ the 
machine is plugged in. You can still hibernate if your TP runs on AC power 
using tpctl -H. If you define a hotkey for your favourite window 
manager/desktop environment to call tpctl -H you don't have to worry about 
Fn-F12 not working.
