Description Marc Blumentritt 2007-02-26 20:25:05 UTC
Hi,

the manpage of genkernel states the following:

--suspend
              Add support for userspace suspend/resume (uswsusp). This  option
              requires  Linux  2.6.17 or newer, sys-power/suspend installed on
              the host system, and resume configured in /etc/suspend.conf.

But in portage there is no package called "sys-power/suspend". Which package should this option support?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.read "man genkernel"
2.
3.




Just for good manner:
emerge --info

Comment 1 Chris Gianelloni (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-02-26 22:43:57 UTC
Daniel, what happened to suspend?
Comment 2 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-02-27 01:23:05 UTC
bug #156431
Hopefully someone else will pick up that project soon. In the mean time I wouldn't object to you removing the man page entry for that option.
Comment 3 Chris Gianelloni (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-02-27 22:22:36 UTC
OK.  I'll comment it out in my next _pre for 3.4.7
Comment 4 Marc Blumentritt 2007-03-02 20:17:24 UTC
Hi,

it would be nice, if there is support for the in-kernel suspend method in Gentoo. Therefore it would be cool, if a developer could grab the stuff Daniel did on suspend and make it to a working package.

Anyway, thanks for your cool work on Gentoo.
Regards
Marc
Comment 5 Chris Gianelloni (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-03-07 12:32:54 UTC
OK.  For now, I've removed the --suspend section from SVN and added genkernel to the other bug, so we will know when it's been added into the tree.
Comment 6 Chris Gianelloni (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-04-05 15:01:00 UTC
This is fixed in genkernel 3.4.7 which is now in the tree.
