I have read the cautions in SWSUSP and SUSPEND2, and wonder if anyone is actually using either of these on a Laptop? There seem to be so many caveats, (a) stop devices before suspending, unload drivers (b) USB wont be there when you come back (c) and on and on. That I have to wonder how useful either of these actually is. If I were trying to put this on MY machine I would just do the experiments, but this is for a friends machine that I am setting up, and I would rather NOT install this stuff at all than give him something that would cause more grief than help.
