[NTLUG:Discuss] Suspend computer on SuSE 9.3

[Steve Martindell]

 I normally just leave the computer running and turn off the monitor,
but I want to try the "suspend function" on SuSE 9.3.

So, in the K-Menu (lower right)
          --> I select "Log Out"
               --> then select "Suspend Computer"

and I get a pop-up with following message:

"More than one swap partition, cannot suspend to disk."


so, what is this about?

This is on a standard SuSE 9.3 install, I just let the installer make all
decisions,
so there should be only (1) swap partition.

Do I need to set up something in yast/yast2 to get the "suspend" function to
work?
<or>
Does this require the APM(advanced power management) to be turned on in the
kernel?
