Description : tools to use userspace software suspend provided by the
linux kernel
µswsusp contains the programs to use the userspace software suspend
facility available in linux kernel 2.6.17-rc1 and higher. It enables
you to save the state of the whole system to disk and power off your system.
After restarting your system it will be put back in the exact system state
you left it (this is sometimes called hibernation).
.
It also includes an option to suspend-to-ram after the state is saved to
disk.
In the suspend-to-ram state the system still uses power, but is faster in
resuming. In case the battery depletes the state is still on disk and
resume from disk can continue without data loss.
.
To use this package you need a linux kernel version 2.6.17-rc1 or newer
configured to use an mkinitramfs.
Hi Tim,
I already experimented with uswsusp and did some integration into the
initramfs-tools architecture.
If you install the attached file hooks.resume to
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/resume and
scripts.local-top.resum to
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/resume,
the resume binary is automatically integrated into the initrd upon
installation of a Debian kernel. If you have already installed a kernel,
run update-initramfs -u. You should consider to add this to the postinst
script of your package (See the udev package how to do this).
An last but not least, please call the package uswsusp and *not* muswsusp.
Hint: Google for uswsusp and for muswsusp. You will then know why
uswsusp is better.
Cheers,
Michael

Cheers, Michael I have written the scripts myself already; that was the reason I made the packages, actually. But they look really similar to yours;) An last but not least, please call the package uswsusp and *not* muswsusp. Hint: Google for uswsusp and for muswsusp. You will then know why uswsusp is better. hmm, well they call it µswsusp. But maybe your right.
