Thanks Stefan for your reply. To answer my own question, here is what I discovered about suspend / hibernation evolvement in Linux laptop world.
- the traditional tools are uswsusp + hibernate (s2ram/s2disk & hibernate- ram/hibernate-disk) - pm-utils is the new suspend and powerstate setting framework. It is designed to replace such scripts as those provided by the powersave package. [1] - The latest development is, however, DeviceKit. Both Ubuntu & Fedora are moving towards DeviceKit. [2], [3] 1. http://www.archlinux.it/wiki/index.php?title=Pm-utils 2. http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/karmic/alpha6 3. http://ostatic.com/blog/a-peek-at-devicekit-in-fedora-11-and-beyond So far, Debian seems to be lagging behind such evolvement -- I don't see devicekit in Debian repo yet. cheers On Mon, 14 Sep 2009 10:13:15 -0400, Stefan Monnier wrote: >> Anyone know a good web page that covers setting up suspend / >> hibernation under Debian? > > I usually install uswsusp (which provides s2ram and s2disk), as well as > `hibernate' which provides a wrapper script around these (which knows to > unload some conflicting modules and things like that -- Tong (remove underscore(s) to reply) http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/ http://xpt.sourceforge.net/tools/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-laptop-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
