@ goumba :-
A 'Puppy on a stick" is NOT the same thing as a standard Live session. Nothing like. For a start, there's persistence.....and a Puppy-on-a-stick is, in fact, running in its intended, natural environment. Though your point about ports not being enumerated IS well-taken; we use a udev-rules based utility to ensure things are always re-mounted at the same mount-points.
@jofto :-
Very few Puppies have suspend built-in, OOTB. But it's simple to set up. Create a small script called '
suspend.sh' - or something similar - and edit it to read as follows:-
Code:
#!/bin/sh
#
echo -n mem > /sys/power/state
Make sure it's executable - right-clk->Properties; tick the 'Exec' checkboxes down the bottom>Refresh->OK. Now, clicking on that script will suspend your system. Hitting any key on the keyboard will wake it up again.
Don't ask me how to make that work when you close a laptop lid! I don't know, because I always use a desktop. Totally different procedure, and doesn't involve setting stuff up in the BIOS and/or messing-around with ACPI settings.....
Why don't you join us over at the
Puppy forums? That's the best place to ask Puppy-related questions.
