hello again, and sorry for the late reply! other projects have taken away my time...

very useful hints! thanks for the help!

I tried tuxonice, but w/o success...

it seems that my system has no hibernation-module available (how could I confirm this?) this is the system:

https://leste.maemo.org/Motorola_Droid_4

smile it's experimental but worth it!

I kind of vaguely remember trying to install the uswsusp/uspsusp package but not being able to find it for the Droid4... this seems to be connected to a hibernation-module in the kernel, right? or is it just about the devices repositories?

I don't know anything about compiling kernels (yet!), but, if I do learn, will it be possible to compile it for that device with the "hibernation-module/functionality" activated? or is it another module? another technique?

how can I get hibernation? i love hibernation smile

... I don't have my device handy, so I can't post more information for now...

Sorry I previously mentioned pm-tools package. Of course that is pm-utils, but I guess you found that anyway.

I presume pm-suspend is also not working for you?

You should check /var/log/pm-suspend.log to see if it tells you anything about why it's not running (the log is common to both suspend and to hibernate). If its not there then something is very amiss.

yes, I knew it was pm-utils wink

and there is no pm-suspend.log file in my system ...

EDIT:

for completion I tried

# pm-suspend

and it kind of worked! surprising!
and now there is a pm-powersave.log and pm-suspend.log under /var/log/

I have to mention that I also installed the "hibernate" package in the past. could this be interfering?

Are you running it as root?

# sudo pm-hibernate

I run it as a drop down option on my desktop, so have added it to my sudoers file so I don't need to ask for my password.

yes, as rooot.

I did:

$ su
# pm-hibernate

and less than a second later the su-command-line appeared:

... use pm-hibernate. which is part of the pm-tools package...

On Beowulf I find I need to use the alternative user-space SLEEP_MODULE="uswsusp" option to get it to work.

What works for you may also depend on your hardware.

oh, it didn't work. the command finishes without any output...

# pm-hibernate
#

i tried both with and without the config-file

oh, thanxs!
I was hesitant about installing the pm-packages (I somehow thought they where related to init-non-freedom... I wkll read more on the subject). 

So I will give pm-hibernate a try and inform if it worked on my hardware.
