Now, as the root user: make install If you don't have installed, copy pregenerated man pages: install -v -m644 man/*.1 /usr/share/man/man1 && install -v -m644 man/*.8 /usr/share/man/man8 && ln -sv pm-action.8 /usr/share/man/man8/pm-suspend.8 && ln -sv pm-action.8 /usr/share/man/man8/pm-hibernate.8 && ln -sv pm-action.8 /usr/share/man/man8/pm-suspend-hybrid.8 Suspend or resume functionality can be easily modified by installing files into the /etc/pm/sleep.d directory. These files, known as hooks, are run when the system is put into a sleep state or resumed. Default hooks are located in /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d, and user hooks should be put in /etc/pm/sleep.d. See the pm-action(8) man page for more information. In order to use hibernation with GRUB and a swap partition, you need to add kernel parameter resume=swap_partition (i.e. resume=/dev/sda1) to the kernel line in the /boot/grub/grub.cfg configuration file. Installed Programs Installed Libraries Installed Directories on_ac_power, pm-hibernate, pm-is-supported, pm-powersave, pm-suspend and pm-suspend-hybrid None /etc/pm, /usr/lib/pm-utils and /usr/share/doc/pm-utils-&pm-utils-version; Short Descriptions on_ac_power is a script that determines whether the system is running on AC power (rather than a battery). on_ac_power pm-hibernate is a symlink to pm-action script that puts the computer into hibernate mode (the system is fully powered off and system state is saved to disk). pm-hibernate pm-is-supported is a script that checks whether power management features such as suspend and hibernate are supported. pm-is-supported pm-powersave is a script that puts the computer into powersaving (low power) mode. pm-powersave pm-suspend is a symlink to pm-action script that puts the computer into suspend mode (most devices are shut down and system state is saved in RAM). pm-suspend pm-suspend-hybrid is a symlink to pm-action script that puts the computer into hybrid-suspend mode (the system does everything it needs to hibernate, but suspends instead of shutting down). pm-suspend-hybrid
