hibernation on a desktop? Suspend-to-RAM on a desktop?
Has anyone got hibernation going on a desktop? How about suspend-to-RAM?
My hardware supports APM and ACPI. I've compiled APM support into my
2.2.17 kernel and it is recognized at boot time:
apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x07 (Driver version 1.13)
The apm options I've configured are:
CONFIG_APM=y
# CONFIG_APM_DISABLE_BY_DEFAULT is not set
# CONFIG_APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND is not set
CONFIG_APM_DO_ENABLE=y
CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE=y
# CONFIG_APM_DISPLAY_BLANK is not set
CONFIG_APM_IGNORE_SUSPEND_BOUNCE=y
# CONFIG_APM_RTC_IS_GMT is not set
# CONFIG_APM_ALLOW_INTS is not set
# CONFIG_APM_REAL_MODE_POWER_OFF is not set
Ideally I would like this machine to fall asleep by command line,
push of magic "sleep" button on keyboard, or screensaver-wise after
a given timeout. By fall asleep I mean stop disks, fans, etc.
I know about hdparm, but apm docs also talk about suspending the hard drive,
are these unrelated things or should I still be using hdparm? -chris
