I am running in LVM, so my swap space is actually
/dev/mapper/lvmvolume-swap.  When I installed uswsusp I got an error message
saying that a valid swap space could not be found.  Unless there is some way
to confiure uswsusp to use my LVM managed swap space, I don't think this
solution is going to work for me.
