Hi,
When I click "suspend to disk" in the KMenu, the laptop tries to suspend (and does so without error it seems), but when resuming, GRUB loads and a clean reboot is initiated...
This is a fairly clean aptosid-2010-02 install, with only the binary NVIDIA blob and a custom xorg.conf (Busid entry) file for the crap NVIDIA Hybrid stuff.
I remember suspend to disk worked in sidux somewhere in late 2009, begin 2010, if that's a consolation.
What can I try? Thanks
PS: suspend to RAM works fine. |

I have discovered the solution: grub was not configured to resume from a suspended session.
I added "resume=/dev/sda3" (sda3 = my swap partition) to /etc/default/grub:
Quote:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet nosplash resume=/dev/sda3"
After the modification:
Quote:
su
update-grub
exit
I feel this should be default behavior for an aptosid install with a swap partition, no? |

| This should be in the wiki/manual to help others who have this issue too. Also your swap has to be a bit larger than the total amount of physical RAM in your machine in order for this to work properly |

I'd prefer to use UUID
resume2=swap=UUID=794b5358-b197-4757-0e94-26eb6c24c556
use
Code:
blkid -t TYPE=swap -o value -s UUID
(taken from get-resume-partition)
to find the UUID of the swap partition(s) |

| However, I do remember you could use a file instead a partition for a swap. I can't remember if you can use that swap file for hibernation |

How come a resume takes so long? On Windows, resuming is about 15-20 seconds, suspend around 30-40. In linux, it takes 30-40 for both actions. The total amount of used memory is much less in Linux, why does it take longer to resume?
I have 4 GB RAM, but only around 800 MB is used (swap + RAM) in linx, about 1.5 GB (swap + RAM) is used in Windows.
About he UUID: agreed, it should be preferred, will change that when I have time/desire/.../need  |

Das mit der Bootoption resume=UUID=*** klappt bei mir jetzt auch,
Schon mal ein Lichtblick. Bei hibernate klappt danach wlan, nur bei suspend leider nicht... |
