Hi,

to understand what is does -> does this work also with normal swsups
(not swsusp2)?
And
how to call vbetool exactly ? I looked into /usr/bin/hibernate but did
not found anything related to the option "EnableVbetool yes" in
/etc/hibernate/hibernate.conf

Thus, if I would call it manually, how does it work?

thanks + greetings,

Leo
