I know very little about suspend-to-ram, but a possibility is maybe |
| 17 |
there's something with X. Can you get to another tty (Ctrl-Alt-F2)? It |
| 18 |
may also be something like xscreensaver set to a screensaver that |
| 19 |
doesn't run well. |

Standby just turns off the screen and spins down the disks. It may or |
| 25 |
may not turn off some hardware like the net card. Ram is still powered |
| 26 |
and the machine is still on. Suspend to RAM as I understand it is much |
| 27 |
deeper, ram and cpu are just about all that is powered up. |
