Problems with lphdisk

lphdisk does not seem to recognize my hibernation partition. Here is
the output of fdisk -l /dev/hda:

Disk /dev/hda: 20.0 GB, 20003880960 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 2432 cylinders

and the output of lphdisk:

Warning: Cannot determine physical RAM.
Reccomended partition size is unknown.
