Re: Suspend2-patch vs Debian Sarge (official) kernel 2.6.8-16sarge1

Rob,

I was not looking for an alternative way to do suspend (I already knew
ACPI suspend feature), but I am interest in suspend2 (which has a lot of
great features ACPI don't have). More, suspend2 is a debian package
which should work with the Debian system - but actually it is not.

My intent was to understand why this package is in a non working state
for debian stable kernel, and how to get it work.

I have not used this myself, but I noticed that there is a newer package
in experimental which is called "kernel-patch-suspend2". According to
the package description:

This kernel patch applies to the following Debian kernel versions:
   2.6.8, 2.6.10, 2.6.11, 2.6.12.
Please see /usr/share/doc/kernel-patch-suspend2/README.Debian for
information about other kernels.

Maybe it is worth a try or at least a look into the README which might
explain the current Debian policy for suspend2.

Regards,
           Florian
