S2RAM(8)							       s2ram								  S2RAM(8)

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
