News on http://www.tuxonice.net/ : "15 August 2010: Patch for 2.6.35 A patch for the 2.6.35 kernel is now available. Humble apologies for the delay." I know gentoo-tuxonice is "lightly supported", so I don't expect a rush on this. ;) But thanks in advance.
Assigning to maintainer and CC'ing herds.
This is a "snapshot version", so no official version yet :| Also it fails to apply for me - hunk #2 fails for include/linux/fs.h: patching file include/linux/fs.h Hunk #2 FAILED at 210.

It looks like the Tuxonice patch was made with the 2.6.35.2 kernel in mind. Seems that MS_BORN wasn't added until then. Genpatches has a version 3 (http://sourcestest.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/linux-patches/genpatches-2.6/tags/2.6.35-3/) which incldues the patch for 2.6.35.2. Using version 3 lets the Tuxonice apply and seems to be working on my machine (suspended and resumed just fine). Should I attach the entire ebuild or just make a patch from the 2.6.34 ebuild I used?
2.6.35-3 is not used yet in gentoo-sources, we (as kernel team) are waiting for 2.6.35.3 patch to include it in 2.6.35-4 and that will be used (check http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-kernel/msg_3eb1198b265fc3d830979b296e921c02.xml). I'll add 2.6.35 with TOI snapshot and 2.6.35-3 to the tree and when -4 comes out it will replace the one with -3.
tuxonice-sources-2.6.35 (which includes genpatches-3 and TOI 20100815) added to the tree.
