Well, I'm afraid that full image of memory is not that high on
priority list. Rafael's solution seems to work pretty much okay.

Well, sorry about that. I thought I gave you fair warning at the end
of last year, when I posted uswsusp patches to the lists...

We could use some help with userland tools. Helping with userland
parts is probably the fastest way to get usable/nice/fast suspend to
the users.

If you think suspend2 can be easily ported to userspace... yes, that
