Hi,

Swsusp comes back with the following error message on my Toshiba m200 
laptop:

I use gentoo linux with kernel-2.6.11.4 kernel (not gentoo-kernel!) 
patched with acpi-20050309-2.6.11.diff.gz and boot with 
resume=swap:/dev/hda3 where hda3 is my swap patition. I have searched the 
web and I see that I am not the 1st one getting the same error message; 
the question is if anybody has come up with a remedy to this problem.

Thanks,

Ferenc
