yes - but without success.

with a self build kernel? Which version have you tried? With which
result?

I have a self built vmlinuz-2.6.16.14-suspend2 kernel, which does not
awake again. The error message is, that grub cant map the resume
parameter to a partion (haven't written down the exact wording, but can
do that if anybody needs it). I have a sata disk with /dev/sda4 as
swap partition.

	any hints?
