Serious question: Why don't we just use s2ram at first place instead of reimplementing the functionality? I mean, we already rely on external packages (vbetools) for the video handling stuff, so we could just as well rely on s2ram *instead*. Is it, because s2ram comes bundled together with s2disk and you don't want to use userspace hibernate? In that case, we could split s2ram and s2disk into separate binary packages. Imho using s2ram (with the quirks provided by hal, and optionally fallback to the builtin whitelist) seems like a good solution. I'm sure, Stefan also has some good technical arguments, why it's a good idea to do the video state store/restore in a single binary. Comments welcome.
