Re: linux-image-2.6.39-bpo.2-amd64: hibernate doesn't ever resume



This grub config change works for me.  Thank you.

What can be done to fix the bug of automatically enabled low-battery hibernations that don't resume properly (= loss of data/session)?

Why isn't this hack needed for the squeeze non-bpo kernels?

What adds those lines to grub on wheezy?  Can it be backported to squeeze (stable or bpo)?
