Has anyone got hibernation going on a desktop? How about suspend-to-RAM? My hardware supports APM and ACPI. I've compiled APM support into my 2.2.17 kernel and it is recognized at boot time:
apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x07 (Driver version 1.13) The apm options I've configured are: CONFIG_APM=y # CONFIG_APM_DISABLE_BY_DEFAULT is not set # CONFIG_APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND is not set CONFIG_APM_DO_ENABLE=y CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE=y # CONFIG_APM_DISPLAY_BLANK is not set CONFIG_APM_IGNORE_SUSPEND_BOUNCE=y # CONFIG_APM_RTC_IS_GMT is not set # CONFIG_APM_ALLOW_INTS is not set # CONFIG_APM_REAL_MODE_POWER_OFF is not set Ideally I would like this machine to fall asleep by command line, push of magic "sleep" button on keyboard, or screensaver-wise after a given timeout. By fall asleep I mean stop disks, fans, etc. I know about hdparm, but apm docs also talk about suspending the hard drive, are these unrelated things or should I still be using hdparm? -chris
