Dibble, I assume you maintain hibernate. Did you just add the backup line? There's a "feature" in pacman that files aren't backed up unless the version installed on the system has the backup entry. So, if you add a backup entry, the time you upgrade to that package will overwrite the conf file. All upgrades afterwards won't. Also, Tom, if you want to see what pacman thinks the backup files are for a package (let's say it's installed), use pacman -Qii <pkgname>. That will tell you exactly how pacman should be treating the file. Jason -- If you understand, things are just as they are. If you do not understand, things are just as they are.
