Hey Iain,
Thanks for the info! I kinda figured that klaptop did something
different. It obviously didn't run the hibernate.conf scripts. I guess
I can settle for running hibernate in the console, I mean, that's better
than nothing, really. Klaptop and gkrellm at least still give a good
indication of the battery status. Anyway, I'll start bugging the
people on the suspend2 lists now about it. thanks a lot!
Mike

Just an update;
I unmasked and emerged vbetool-0.3 and it installed and emerged just
fine. I configured the /etc/hibernate/hibernate.conf script to use it
and now it works, but only if I use the hibernate command. If I use
kde's klaptop monitor, it doesn't seem to use the hibernate script,
meaning no video after suspend, and no network cards after hibernate.
Is there anything I can do to get it to read that script?
I don't actually have klaptop working properly yet (tells me there is no
ACPI support...)
But, I suspect that klaptop uses swsusp, not suspend2.
If this is the case, there was talk on the suspend2 list for overriding
that somehow (just looking through emails now...)
The proposal was to be able to:
$ echo "/sbin/hibernate" > /proc/suspend2/override_swsusp
to set your "suspend type" and then:
$ echo disk > /sys/power/state
would use the hibernate script.
I don't know if this is implemented yet. Also, some kde person may tell
you that klaptop can support whatever method of suspend you want - I
don't know.
I just suspend from a terminal anyway :)
HTH,
