I'll do that, as soon as I have time to spare.  Thanks for the tip.

I'm using it.  I think the problem is that some module is not getting
unloaded before the memory dump.  Stopping services manually seems to
do it right.  I've never really look seriously into it, because I
don't use it much: the long suspend/resume time is really the big
issue for me.

But don't get me wrong, I really like the swsusp idea, and I will give
it another go soon.  I wish I had the time to help the develpers---
even if writing code for them is probably far beyond my current
abilities :-)  I just doesn't feel right to sit and complain about it.

I think it's a really neat project.

Thanks again.
