Bug#719539: O: hibernate
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I intend to orphan the hibernate package.
The package description is:
The hibernate script helps you in putting your computer to sleep, using one
of the various methods available in the kernel.
.
Hibernate can take care of loading and unloading modules, provides various
hacks needed to get some video cards to resume properly under X, can
optionally restart networking and system services, and basically do whatever
else you ask it. It can be extended by writing new "scriptlets" which run at
different points during the suspend process.
.
Currently the script supports all suspend mechanisms available through the
/sys/power/state interface (including ACPI suspend and the in-kernel software
suspend), as well as TuxOnIce.
Some months ago all Linux hibernation implementations stopped working for me
and I was planning to migrate from hibernate to pm-utils anyway so I didn't
want to try to do anything with this pile of unsupported code. There are some
minor commits in the collab-maint git repo.
