Using a ThinkPad-T42 and Deb-Sid and its supplied kernels I have the
same problem: 'Can't find swap device'
I used SUSE-9.3 and 10.0 for a month or so until DebSid supported the
internal-wireless-2200. SUSE supports suspend to ram and disk. But now
I'm back to my favorite Deb-test and Deb-sid. I still miss swsusp but
laptop is almost always plugged in anyway so susp>ram is ok.
