Has worked properly here very well with suspend2, which isn't in the
stock kernel unfortunately.

Oh, ok but my comment was about our kernel really.

Now it also works very well here with vanilla kernel 2.6.17 and the
debian package for uswsusp which I've packaged.

You can try them out if you like (you need a 2.6.17 kernel),

But I hope they'll get uploaded very soon.


I'll take a look thanks, but did you see the recent discussion in lkml  ? Linus
came up with a patch to definitely solve some of the problems with the suspend
model. AFAIK, it's not yet into his tree or mm, but i hope to see the
changes merged in time for 2.6.18, really cool stuff there. I think
you can read a summary by Greg at lwn.
