Description : tools to use userspace software suspend provided by the linux kernel
µswsusp contains the programs to use the userspace software suspend
facility available in linux kernel 2.6.17-rc1 and higher. It enables
you to save the state of the whole system to disk and power off your system.
After restarting your system it will be put back in the exact system state
you left it (this is sometimes called hibernation).
.
It also includes an option to suspend-to-ram after the state is saved to disk.
In the suspend-to-ram state the system still uses power, but is faster in
resuming. In case the battery depletes the state is still on disk and
resume from disk can continue without data loss.
.
To use this package you need a linux kernel version 2.6.17-rc1 or newer
configured to use an mkinitramfs.
