Category: Tips, tricks & hacks

I had to upgrade my trusty old HP nw8000 since the hardware started to fall to pieces around me (keyboard tuned, lost the soundcard etc.). I liked the HP nw series enough to go for the newest model (it helps that HP is one of the providers we use at work ;) but not quite top of the line model. I also stuck to Fedora Core since that’s the distro I’m most familiar with and my computer is a tool and I’ve done my fair share of tinkering with Linux.

OK, linux nerd alert again. I spent some time fiddling around with the various tricks needed to get hibernation and suspending working on my laptop with FC5. Keep reading to find out what I did. If you’re interested, that is.
