Johannes Berg tells me that on most 32bit apple laptops 'echo mem > /sys/power/state' does what it is supposed to. Does this mean that ioctl(snaptshot_fd, SNAPSHOT_S2RAM, 0); will do too? I can just ask people to try that out of course... or I could dive in the kernel code, but asking the experts is easier;) grts Tim ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
