sweet, i am looking forward to your answer.
i am planning to improve the patch a bit when i get some time (in a month
or two), namely:
1) acpi support
2) better behaviour after a crash
3) a really working suspend in location a and resume in location b
1) will depend on how acpi will work on my thinkpad, i read that it works
pretty good these days with -current
2) this will be quite simple, make the script execute after fsck in the
rc.d chain, but it needs testing
3) this i'll plan to do by adding specific SUSPEND tags to all rc.d scripts
that will tell whether or not the stop/start action should be taken.
plus i have to figure out how to keep X working after a resume and a
possible hostname/ip change. maybe i also have to change the hostname
through sysctl, but this is not related.
all in all, there is still some work to do and i am happy for any feedback.
two things to note:
do not rely on suspend/resume + profile patch to work flawlessly. it does
work quite well if you don't use X, but it is not clean yet. if you want to
use suspend/resume a lot, undo the changes to rc.suspend and rc.resume and
use the profile patch without that funtionality.
and do watch out when your machine should crash! after a crash, boot to
single user mode and fsck manually. crash plus starting up with a profile
is not working correctly yet.
i hope i will find some time soon to enhance this patch.
greets, t.
btw, nice email address :)
