Okay, I would start by reading these articles: http://wiki.debian.org/Suspend http://wiki.debian.org/Hibernation https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pm-utils Then, for debugging purposes, manually call the suspend or hibernate scripts, from command line, to see what happens (man pm-action). Also, there uses to be a log file at "/var/log/pm-suspend.log" which registers most of the problems when sending the computer to sleep/ hibernate and also when you want to restore it. Take a look at it. Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
