Hi. I have an IBM thinkpad and I installed Debian on it and got a daemon called sleepd -- however it wants a command to actually put the machine to sleep. Its default was apm -s which of course never worked because the machine is an acpi machine.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Maybe you want to have a look at this: http://softwaresuspend.berlios.de/
Anyone with experience of using this vs. the 2.6 native option?
i just use the native 2.6 swsusp and acpi with my r40.
for the command, i just coded a little script that ultimately calls: echo 4 > /proc/acpi/sleep and i've added bits along the way, like resetting the clock, disabling laptop mode, etc.
here's most my script: #!/bin/sh chvt 12 # since i like to watch
/etc/init.d/laptop-mode stop /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh stop
echo 4 > /proc/acpi/sleep
/etc/init.d/hwclock.sh start /etc/init.d/laptop-mode start
Something I missed. echo 4 >/proc/acpi/sleep indeed does so. Then what? You power down? With the button? I reboot with resume=/dev/hda13 in the boot cmdline and linux complains about not being shutdown right, and he cycles through all the steps anyway.
