Google’d for ‘hibernate linux post sleep’, because I want to run scripts on wake-up to kick the MM10 back up to longrun ‘performance’ (always defaults to ‘economy’). Near the top of the results was this article on TechRebublic written this month (March 2008) by Jack Wallen.

Jack states he has ten years’ experience with ‘Linux’ (BTW, see a comment to my previous post to decode what I mean by ‘Linux’ — Jack uses some convenient shortcuts too).

Too many people are waving their Achilles Heels at Linux, and I’m just as guilty.

If I say something a little unthinking, and a little inflammatory, will y’all please take it as a provocative viewpoint of the n00b, and feel free to educate me. I just believe that if I try to be precisely correct in my postings, I’ll never write anything; I’ll never annoy anyone and I’ll never learn anything.

I really like Linux (OK, to be precise, the Debian Distro. Gnome Desktop on Linux 2.6.24 patched with Suspend2, with most packages taken from Lenny). It just seems the processes surrounding it[s development could cause more pain than necessary.
