I *think* it saved the state in a file like /.cpr, and worked fairly well; I don't recall suspend to RAM being available on SPARC. I did have suspend to RAM working on an intel box, but that was many years ago. My current system says no, and I haven't had one working for a while: # sys-suspend suspend: Suspend is not supported. although it boots from cold quickly enough that the few seconds I would gain from resume don't bother me that much. -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/
