Hi; not sure if it will help you, but I have been using |
| 20 |
vanilla-sources since forever (sys-kernel/vanilla-sources-2.6.30.3, |
| 21 |
since Aug 29, 2009), and my laptop suspends and resumes pretty much |
| 22 |
always without any issue. I don't use genkernel: I manually configure |
| 23 |
and compile my kernels since always, and I use dracut for my |
| 24 |
initramfs. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Anyhow; suspend/resume should be orthogonal to an initramfs, since the |
| 27 |
first has nothing to do with the second. I don't know about hibernate |
| 28 |
(it's been years since I hibernated my laptop), but it should be |
| 29 |
similar, I think. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
In my laptop, GNOME does the suspend for me, but it calls pm-suspend |
| 32 |
(I believe) from pm-utils. |

Regards. |
