Ummm Not sure what you want...
If you put the mount parameter noatime in the file /etc/fstab, then the disks
will not be spun up to change the data time parameters, and if you set power
management properly, disks will spin down. Add to that the "lock screen"
feature, and you have a computer in hibernation, waiting for a password,
except network processes are open.
So how is the suspend to ram feature different than that? What purpose does
it accomplish? Linux people are more used to non-stop computing, so we need
an explanation.
