Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

1 swsusp/S3 tricks
2 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

5If you want to trick swsusp/S3 into working, you might want to try:
6
7* go with minimal config, turn off drivers like USB, AGP you don't
8 really need
9
10* turn off APIC and preempt
11
12* use ext2. At least it has working fsck. [If something seemes to go
13 wrong, force fsck when you have a chance]
14
15* turn off modules
16
17* use vga text console, shut down X. [If you really want X, you might
18 want to try vesafb later]
19
20* try running as few processes as possible, preferably go to single
21 user mode.
22
23* due to video issues, swsusp should be easier to get working than
24 S3. Try that first.
25
26When you make it work, try to find out what exactly was it that broke
27suspend, and preferably fix that.
