Hello, I'm using Fedora on two laptops for quite some time now (since F8). Having used suspend-to-disk very often I can conclude, that I'm not happy with the performance it shows. Suspending a laptop with just 1GB of memory takes about 30 to 60 seconds here and nearly the same for resuming. The same laptop on Windows (sorry ;-)) got it done in about 10 seconds each. What I did some time ago, was to switch to the TuxOnIce[1] patched kernels from atrpms. Not only does TuxOnIce show a progressbar (even with splash if wanted) during suspend and resume, it also handles the process in the expected 10 to 15 seconds. Since Fedora patches the Kernel anyway, I propose adding TuxOnIce (also known as Suspend2) into the official Fedora Kernel. It doesn't hurt those who don't use suspend-to-disk anyway but benefits those who do. Also it could probably rather easy be integrated with Plymouth to show a nice animation during suspend and resume. (Though that would be optional :-P) I hope you take at least the time to consider it for a few moments. Thanks in Advance, Andreas Schneider. [1] http://www.tuxonice.net/
