> Previously, echo mem ... doesn't work at all on powerpc. Hmm, ok I misunderstood then. I thought that in our previous tests you said it used echo mem ... maybe you were using your patches;) That would maybe explain why s2both doesn't work yet for cedric. s2both works through an ioctl on /dev/snapshot, which is equivalent (Rafael tells me) to echo mem ... s2ram (with my patch) uses /dev/pmu first, then tries echo mem ... grts Tim ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
