NAME
s2ram - program to suspend to ram (suspend) SYNOPSIS
s2ram [-h, --help] [-V, --vesion] [-n, --test] [-i, --identify] [--nofbsuspend] [--force] [--vbe_save] [--vbe_mode] [--radeontool] [--acpi_sleep nr] [--pci_save] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the s2ram command. This manual page was written for the Debian(TM) distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. s2ram is a program that will suspend your system to ram (put it in S3 mode). Which means that the system is in a lower power mode. It asked to do so it will wake up farely quickly. However, if the system will run out of energy entirely you will lose data. That is why it is recommended to use s2both(8) s2ram is only provided to find out any work around needed to make suspend to both work. See README.s2ram-whitelist and README.Debian for more information. OPTIONS
-h, --help Short help text. -V, --version Version information. -n, --test test if the machine is in the database. returns 0 if known and supported -i, --identify prints a string that identifies the machine. --nofbsuspend do not suspend the framebuffer (for debugging purposes). --force force suspending, even on unknown machines. the following options are only available with --force. --vbe_save save VBE state before suspending and restore after resume. --vbe_post VBE POST the graphics card after resume. --vbe_mode get VBE mode before suspend and set it after resume. --radeontool turn off the backlight on radeons before suspending. -v, --pci_save Save the PCI config space of the VGA card before suspend and restore it after resume. --acpi_sleep nr set the acpi_sleep parameter before suspend. 1=s3_bios, 2=s3_mode, 3=both SEE ALSO

NAME
s2disk - program to suspend to disk (hibernate) SYNOPSIS
s2disk [-h, --help] [-V, --version] [-f, --config config_file] [-r, --resume_device device] [-o, --resume_offset offset] [-s, --image_size size] [-P, --parameter parameter] resume DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the s2disk, s2both and resume commands. This manual page was written for the Debian(TM) distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. s2disk is a program that will save the state of the whole system to disk and power off your system. After restarting your system it will be put back in the exact system state you left it (this is sometimes called hibernation). s2both will do precisly the same as s2disk except that it will not power off the system, but will suspend it to ram (put the system in S3 mode). This has the advantage that resume will be faster, with the disadvantage that you still use batteries. If they batteries do deplete, you still have the system state saved to disk and can resume without data loss. The s2both command also inherits all command line arguments from s2ram. You will need to set up an initramfs which calls the resume program for this to work. If you use an Debian(TM) kernel package which was made with the --initrd option and you use mkinitramfs-tools, this package should include the necessary parts on your initramfs. The uswsusp system supports encrypting the image written to disk and features a splash system, see uswsusp.conf(8) for more information OPTIONS
-f, --config [file] Specify alternate configuration file. -h, --help Display help. -r, --resume_device [device] Device that contains swap area. -o, --resume_offset [offset] Offset of swap file in resume device. -s, --image_size [size] Desired size of the image. -P, --parameter [key=value] Override any config file parameter (see uswsusp.conf(8)). For the meaning and use of the resume_size, resume_offset and image_size options see uswsusp.conf(8). SEE ALSO
