suspend extension posted

Note that suspend to hd has not been tested since my laptop hd is formatted ntfs. Before trying suspend, I would recommend having a look at http://en.opensuse.org/S2ram

I haven't made a tcz as yet as I am unsure how this would work on resume, especially in the case of suspend to hd.

suspend to ram works for me from both console mode and from X on a dell d430

Any further development on this?

suspend.tcz tested on my dell d430 - suspend to ram works OK, suspend to disk not tested.

Note that before trying this extension, you could try:

Code: [Select]

# echo -n "mem" > /sys/power/state
If this doesn't work, then you could try this extension:

On the eee 900 20 GB:

# echo -n "mem" > /sys/power/state --- suspends but machine won't awaken with keyboard and video
$ sudo s2ram -f -- suspends but machine won't awaken with keyboard and video
Other variants of the s2ram also cause the machine to freeze.

So suspend.tczl is not useful to me, it seems.

Standby does work:

echo standby > /sys/power/state -- Puts machine on standby; push power button to restore.

My two cents, for what its worth.
