According to the docs I have found you need to patch genkernel to |
27 |
run /sbin/resume - it was a longstanding argument between two now |
28 |
retired devs with the result that genkernel wont (ever) support |
29 |
hibernation. I dont know from reading the bugs if it was ever fixed now |
30 |
the dev who "wouldnt" has retired, or is genkernel is still broken. |
31 |
|
32 |
Also, I have no /sbin/resume on any of my systems (some are years old |
33 |
and have been successfully running ToI for most of that time) - so how |
34 |
can the initramfs actually start resumimg? |
35 |
|
36 |
Though I have a more immediate problem - hangs on hibernation and no log |
37 |
messages. |
