This manual page documents briefly the
s2ram command.
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution
because the original program does not have a manual page.
s2ram is a program that will
suspend your system to ram (put it in S3 mode). Which
means that the system is in a lower power mode. It asked to do so
it will wake up farely quickly.
However, if the system will run out of energy entirely you will lose
data. That is why it is recommended to use s2both(8)
s2ram is only provided to find out any work around
needed to make suspend to both work. See README.s2ram-whitelist and
README.Debian for more information.
