Disable one of them. Ok, I did that. Now I'm getting an error there's not enough swap space (logical enough I think). /critical section: Counting pages to copy[nosave] (pages needed :18062+152=18574 free 14689) Couldn't get enough free pages, on 3885 pages short. Kernel panic: Not enough free pages If both swap partitions is disallowed, and one swap partition isn't enough space, is there anything I can do now to make this work? I'd really like to get suspend working. I know at one point 128MB was the limit on a swap partition. Is this limit gone now? How technically difficult is it to make swsusp work with multiple swap partitions?

I have 128 MB RAM, and a single 256 MB swap partition. I pressed SysRq-D, swsusp displayed all sorts of successful messages, and then rebooted my computer.

Yep, you need to pass resume=/dev/hda3 to resume (on kernel command line). Pavel -- (about SSSCA) "I don't say this lightly.
