My first thought was that this might be very hard to do - after all the system is quiescing everything and swapping it out to disk, and you can't have anything mess with the memory image after it starts the hibernation process - but then I remembered that in the very earliest days of ACPI hibernate, there used to be text-mode progress indicators. It used to tell us where in the hibernation process it was, and how many pages it had written to the swap file - plus a useful indication of why it failed to hibernate, in the (then frequent) cases where it didn't work. Now, I fairly regularly hibernate when I leave work, only to find that the PC has been running in my backpack all the way home - and no diagnostics. -- derek -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
