Hi, all --
I am finally breaking out my Linux Mag DVD to install on my shiny used laptop, and the partitioner has me scratching my head. I have 8G of RAM, and I gave myself about 17G of swap space when I laid out the disk. The partitioner has a check box for "Enlarge swap for suspend", although it isn't selectable (perhaps because I have my OS partition right behind it?). Sooooo...
How much swap do I need if I'm planning to suspend to disk (aka hibernate as compared to sleep, but I forget the s2/s3/... stages)?
TIA & Happy Holidays
Hmm, from the last "fresh" install (Leap 42.1), I've set it to RAM-size + a few mega Byte for my "hibernate to disk" and "hybrid sleep" needs. Works so far, in numbers: RAM 16GB=16384 MB SWAP 16387 MB, so RAM +3MB. My favorite is "hybrid sleep" via systemctl in a script: [code] # close open vpn and ssh stuff # ... # and park the system: maybe use "-i" systemctl hybrid-sleep || systemctl -i hybrid-sleep [/code] YMMV - Yamaban -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
