Has anybody out there ever been able to successfully suspend a Linux session on a laptop? If so, how difficult is it? Is there a utility that does it?
When I right-click my battery monitor in Gnome, I'm given the option to suspend my computer. However, when I take that option, I get a message that states, "Suspend wasn't setup correctly in the preferences. Please change the preferences and try again." Well, I can't seem to find anything related to suspending my computer in my preferences or in my system settings. I have been able to hit the sleep button on this thing, and get some results, but I get a few undesirable results. For example, my ethernet card stays on when I suspend, but stops working when I wake the computer back up. Also, Is it possible to suspend to disk? Theoretically, I believe its possible to suspend both a windows session and a Linux session to disk in parallel, enabling me to jump between each session quickly. I'm running RH 8 on a Dell Inspiron 4000.
