[ltp] Re: suspend-to-disk (ACPI S3?)

[morpheus]

My machine did that at first, too.  Here's how I fixed it:
Edit the file /etc/suspend.conf
There are three settings that are important, 
SWSUSP_DOWNIFS, SWSUSP_REMOVEMODS and
SWSUSP_STOP_SERVICES_BEFORE_SUSPEND

These let you stop interfaces, modules and services before entering
suspend.  Trial and error can tell you which ones to stop, but USB,
wireless LAN and pcmcia seem to cause problems.  Here is mine:

SWSUSP_STOP_SERVICES_BEFORE_SUSPEND="mysqld imapd saslauthd postfix"
SWSUSP_DOWNIFS="eth0 wlan0"
SWSUSP_REMOVEMODS="e1000 usb_uhci ehci_hcd uhci_hcd ath_pci ath_hal"

To automatically re-start them, use them SWSUSP_INSERTMODS,
SWSUSP_START_SERVICES_AFTER_RESUME and SWSUSP_UPIFS.

Good luck!
