Re: How do I suspend to disk

Hi Wee-Jin,

Just as an add-on to what Djoume has just written, you can also use the 
hibernate script:

http://packages.debian.org/testing/utils/hibernate

Although is says it only supports Software Suspend 2, it works with 
suspend-to-disk too [you have to modify the config file though]. It 
provides a nice way to tailor the script to your requirements (stopping 
sound appications, taking care of mounted network share, ect.).

Kind regards

Francois
