Description:   Opened: 2004-05-21 14:42 0000 
I don't know (and didn't find anything) about the policy of which patches go
into gentoo-dev-sources. However, I'd like to have swsusp2 integrated, which is
not yet in any kernel-sources but looks quite stable.
One of the three required patches doesn't apply cleanly if the speakup console
patch is applied before, but the conflict can easily be resolved. Additionally
a script "suspend.sh" is needed for swsusp2, I think it makes sense to create
an own ebuild for it.

------- Comment #1 From Dennis Nienhüser 2004-05-25 09:33:17 0000 ------- 
Added bug #52019 which contains an ebuild that install the /sbin/hibernate
script.

Sorry for being impatient, but are you going to integrate these patches? A
proper integration of swsusp2 in the Portage tree is the last thing that stops
me from finishing the Power Management guide. If no kernel-sources include
swsusp2 I will have to look for another way of making Suspend-To-Disk end-user
ready.

John, can you give a quick comment whether it's going to be integrated?

------- Comment #3 From Greg Kroah-Hartman 2004-06-19 09:24:41 0000 ------- 
Nope, I will not add add swsusp2 to the kernel package, the patch is a
nightmare
and no kernel developer supports it.

------- Comment #4 From Dennis Nienhüser 2004-06-19 11:12:50 0000 ------- 
Thanks, although I don't like the answer, it's better than none. Why do you
think the patch is a nightmare?

------- Comment #5 From Greg Kroah-Hartman 2004-06-19 13:53:09 0000 ------- 
have you read the thing?  

see the archives of the linux-kernel mailing list for details on the objections to it
