I'm not sure why apt-listbugs didn't howl when I upgraded to 0.8-1.2, but so far, I haven't been bitten by these bugs - I guess that I've been lucky. In any event, when I originally wrote 's2disk', I really meant the in-kernel suspend-to-disk functionality, which can be invoked in various other ways. Moreover, in the most common use case for suspending, where a machine will be disconnected from its external power source, it's not a great idea to use suspend-to-ram without a working suspend-to-disk backup, since if the internal battery drains before the external power source is reconnected, the system will crash, with possible data loss, etc. Celejar -- foffl.sourceforge.net - Feeds OFFLine, an offline RSS/Atom aggregator mailmin.sourceforge.net - remote access via secure (OpenPGP) email ssuds.sourceforge.net - A Simple Sudoku Solver and Generator -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
