Yes, I thought that was what you wanted.

You can use Thread.usleep(microseconds) for that:

------------------------------------------------------------------
int time_min = 5;

Thread.usleep (time_min * 60 * 1000 * 1000);
try {
        Process.spawn_command_line_async ("gksudo '/etc/acpi/hibernate.sh'");
} catch (Error e) {
        stderr.printf ("%s\n", e.message);
}
------------------------------------------------------------------


Best regards,
