Package: uswsusp
Version: 1.0+20110509-1.1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I am using the save to disk option for swap files instead of swap
partitions, following this guide:
http://wiki.debian.org/Hibernation/Hibernate_Without_Swap_Partition
It works fine the first time (Installing uswsusp after activating the
swap file).
But when I create a new swap file and run dpkg-reconfigure get newer
configuration to effect in the kernel and uswsusp config, I get this
message:
The swap file or partition that was found in uswsusp's configuration
file is not active.
In most cases this means userspace software suspend will not work as
expected. You should choose
another swap space.
However, in some rare cases, this configuration may be intentional.
Continue without a valid swap space?
And then whatever I choose (y/n) the new configuration for uswsusp
and kernel won't be generated.
To work around this I have to first remove the uswsusp package and
then install it again.
Is there some other way to update the configs? I have tried using
the "swap-offset" utility and edit uswsusp.conf manually, but that
doesn't work as the kernel doesn't know the offset. I didn't go
further with editing kernel files.
I have written this script:
https://github.com/crodjer/scripts/blob/master/hibernator.sh, mainly
targeted to delete the swap file created on resume, to retrieve my
disk space back. But for it to work, I have to run apt purge-install
pair instead of reconfiguring.
This will show you exactly what steps I am taking for creating and
handling swap files.
