I have read the cautions in SWSUSP and SUSPEND2, and wonder if
anyone is actually using either of these on a Laptop?
There seem to be so many caveats,
(a) stop devices before suspending, unload drivers
(b) USB wont be there when you come back
(c) and on and on.
That I have to wonder how useful either of these actually is.
If I were trying to put this on MY machine I would just do the
experiments, but this is for a friends machine that I am setting up,
and I would rather NOT install this stuff at all than give him
something that would cause more grief than help.
We might be able to give specific advice if you gave more specific
details: make, model, output from lspci, the "System Information"
stanza from dmidecode, etc.
Have you checked Linux on Laptops or TuxMobil? If it's an IBM/Lenovo,
have you tried thinkwiki?
We aren't going to do all the work for you, and most of us here aren't
mind readers.
