From: T o n g on 28 Jan 2010 18:30 Hi, I'm trying to get Suspend/Hibernate works with my Debian Laptop. Please recommend a good article/blog/site for me to follow. I've done some extensive search, but it's still not working. I first tried suspend to ram (because I know suspend to disk need extra work), but the symptom is similar to Laptop won't resume from suspend to ram http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.user/370058/focus=370097 My case: the machine won't resume from a suspend to ram. It's not just a problem with a blank screen upon resuming; the machine actually gets completely frozen. I can hear the hard disk spinning though. and I can see the the wireless LED come on when resuming, then nothing else. Ctrl-Alt-F1, Ctrl-Alt-Del, and even Caplock keys won't respond. Following suggestions from it, I did PM_DEBUG=1 pm-suspend (as root) and check the log file /var/log/pm-suspend.log, and it seems to have suspended fine. The last several meaningful lines are: + [ Thu Jan 28 17:48:01 EST 2010: performing suspend = -n ] + printf %s\n Thu Jan 28 17:48:01 EST 2010: performing suspend Thu Jan 28 17:48:01 EST 2010: performing suspend + sync + do_suspend + echo -n mem And after that all garbage. The Suspend/resume works out of box in Unbunto, on my Acer Aspire (AS5536). I wasn't able to test Hibernation under Unbunto because it is not available. Please help. Thanks PS. I'll quote one page that I found that precisely express my frustration: "I've been working with Linux for ten years now. I have seen issues come and I have seen them go. But there's one issue that has always surprised me because it just seems to never go away: Suspend/Hibernate. I am always so surprised about this because it just seems like a fundamental issue on laptops - and let's face it, laptops are standard issue for many people - you close the lid, the laptop suspends. .... it seems to me that hibernate and suspend IS a need that should be given a high priority. And it seems it is starting to gain some traction. There's a new site called the Ubuntu Brainstorm that allows users to add ideas for Ubuntu and vote up or down ideas that are already posted (as well as comment on ideas)..." http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/opensource/?p=175&tag=rbxccnbtr1 -- Tong (remove underscore(s) to reply) http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/ http://xpt.sourceforge.net/tools/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

IIUC, s2disk is much less dependent on undocumented, mysterious hardware quirks than s2ram.

The uswsusp package does not seem to be well maintained and has accumulated six release critical bugs� which prevent it from being in squeeze. What's really worrisome is that there is no visible reaction from the maintainer.
