Re: Hibernation

2.6.38.3-ARCH does.

That's why I said, it's up to the maintainer.
Thanks Tobias.

Re: Hibernation

No, the patch doesn't seem to make it into the 2.6.38.3

Thanks. Is there any way to downgrade the arch kernel easily to 2.6.38.1 (with matching nvidia modules) or should I get the -lts kernel?

In 2.6.38.3 they reverted the patch which broke hibernation. For me it's working nice, BUT I have to say that I use kernel26-pf from AUR which contain TOI (and this is exactly why I use it).

thx for your answer.
I ll patch it, and do it again if it stops working.... I use hibernation alot.

Btw, if You use hibernation a lot, do install a kernel which includes TOI, it's a night and day experience difference btw TOI and standard swsusp! As an example I can say that hibernate with RAM used at 7.7Gb level is about 1 minute and resume takes a bit less less than that on my T500 (Dual Core 2.5GHz, 8G RAM) not to say that desktop is usable instantly after resume is finished! Must have thing I really wonder why this brilliant software is not in kernel
