Let me ask this a different way, then, since the whole swap discussion is just a black hole *sigh*
What does it mean when the "expand swap?" check box is not active, and what do I need to do to allow hibernation (or hybrid sleep, even, if that also allows me to pull all power and park it for a month) as well as suspension?
If you are installing a laptop and intend to hibernate it at some time, then tick the box. If you don't like what it proposes, change it manually. I have never used that tick box. Yes, hybrid will allow you to park for months. However, as the battery is active during the suspend phase, powering the RAM till it dies in, I don't know, three days?, well after that the battery will remain discharged, which is not good. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
