Hi, i just had an idea :-)
Is it possible, by using the uswsusp infrastructure, to freeze everything but the s2ram process during suspend to RAM? I mean the following: start s2ram - chvt away from X - freeze everything else - save video state etc. - echo mem > /sys/power/state - post video etc. - thaw everything else When doing it this way, nothing could interfere with video POST (on some machines the VBE calls take some seconds, the user might already press ALT-F7 in the meantime), the whole video resume business would be "almost" in-kernel. Is this a good idea? Is it doable? -- Stefan Seyfried \ "I didn't want to write for pay. I QA / R&D Team Mobile Devices \ wanted to be paid for what I write."
