I believe I saw Daniel O'Connor (doco@gsoft.com.au) write this:

Well.. under Windows the s2d functionality is provided by Windows itself using ACPI.. FreeBSD doesn't do this yet (for lo it is very difficult) :( There is apparently a way to get the BIOS to do suspend (Fn+A) to a seperate partition, but I haven't got it to work :(

I found the tools in question by looking here ->

http://www.usmedia.nl/joel/inspiron.html

I've got the A10 BIOS (so now I can suspend to ram and everything comes back except USB [the mixer volumes are reset to 0 though]) but no suspend to disk :( The BIOS always reports that there is no partition or it is incompatible with this BIOS (depending on the method I try).

If you have no luck finding the tool let me know any I'll send it to you.

Just setup my partition, and I get a message saying that the BIOS can't find a compatible partition.. grrrrr

Anyone else have some ideas?

TIA
