Hi,

I have been testing s2ram and suspend to disk quite thouroughly, and 
conclusions are that there is stil the main to do :(

s2ram
I have tried to change /etc/pm/config s2ram parameters to many of that listed 
on http://en.opensuse.org/S2ram, but none functioned more than once - first 
suspend to ram was successful with every s2ram parameter (with some parameters, 
resuming occurred first after pressing win key several times), after the second 
suspend to ram resuming failed in approx 90 %. It seems to me, that the problem 
is not s2ram related, but to suse itself.

suspend to disk
With suse 10.2 final I have made approx. 15 experiments, all worked fine but 
the last one was alarming - in the evening, I suspended the machine to disk, on 
the evening resumed and was surprised, that 20 % of the battery has been 
consumed, and a message box telling suspend failed - this implies that the 
machine still consumed electricity. (for comparison - win 2000 boots although 
suspended to disk, if network cable is plugged in - one has to plug the cable 
out for the computer not to spontaneously trigger the resume - this is NOT the 
case in suse - I have tested it).

With suse 10.1 final, s2ram -f -a3 worked fine (except for one minor problem 
not inhibiting the functionality), and flawless. Suspend to disk worked also 
smoothly, although approx 5% were extremely slow (approx. 5 - 10 min - that is 
not acceptable) (i did it approx 200 times).

So, have a lot of energy to explore whats the problem :)
