Package: powersaved
Version: 0.14.0-7
Severity: minor

Currently, the block for SUSPEND2DISK_METHOD in /etc/powersave/sleep reads:

## Path:                System/Powermanagement/Powersave/Sleep_Modes
## Type:                string
## Default:             "kernel"
#
# choose the method used to suspend to disk. There are two choices:
# - the shiny new userspace suspend. Needs the "uswsusp" package
#   installed and configured in /etc/uswsusp.conf. Is much faster
#   and generally considered "state of the art". Needs a recent kernel
#   2.6.17+
# - the old in-kernel suspend, that's proven, reliable and slow.
# Since uswsusp is still new, "kernel" is default.
SUSPEND2DISK_METHOD=""

Setting it to "uswsusp" as the language might be read to imply does
nothing. Checking most of the standard documentation locations for
".*usws.*" finally found this:

/usr/share/doc/powersaved# zgrep usws *
changelog.Debian.gz:  * debian/patches/uswsusp.patch
changelog.Debian.gz:      Install the uswsusp package and set 
SUSPEND2DISK_METHOD to "userspace"
changelog.Debian.gz:    - Add a Recommends on uswsusp.

Following the style in /etc/powersave/common, I recommend making the
Type: line read:

## Type:                string(kernel,userspace)
