I just use a plain 2.6 kernel w/o additional patches, so my S4 mode is done using "swsusp". No unusual kernel parameters. I posted my scripts a while ago on the VDR-Portal - sorry the comments are in german: http://www.vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=29624 Some parts of the script are responsible for a automatic reboot after a timer change to set the alarm clock using NVRAM. After the reboot the script sends the machine to sleep. -- Patrick Gleichmann (mailto:patrick@xxxxxxxxxxxx) PGP key > http://www.feedface.com/patrick/pubkey Homepage > http://www.feedface.com/patrick/
