Suspend to ram: is swap needed?

[Jack Malmostoso <jackmalmostoso@freesurf.ch>]

Hello list,

I usually put my laptop (asus Z37E) to sleep (as in suspend to ram) by
closing the lid and it works just fine. When I wake it up
gnome-power-manager cares to inform me that "suspend failed", but he's
just plain wrong :)

Anyway, I have 2Gb of ram on my machine and 512MB of swap. Is there the
risk that on a busy day the system could not go to sleep because of the
size mismatch, or is the swap not part of the suspend to ram process?

Thanks for clearing this up for me!
