SYNOPSIS

       s2ram [-h, --help] [-V, --vesion] [-n, --test] [-i, --identify]
             [--nofbsuspend] [--force] [--vbe_save] [--vbe_mode]
             [--radeontool] [--acpi_sleep nr] [--pci_save]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the s2ram command.

       This  manual  page  was written for the Debian distribution because the
       original program does not have a manual page.

       s2ram is a program that will suspend your system to ram (put it  in  S3
       mode).  Which  means that the system is in a lower power mode. It asked
       to do so it will wake up farely quickly.  However, if the  system  will
       run  out  of  energy  entirely  you  will  lose data. That is why it is
       recommended to use s2both(8) s2ram is only provided  to  find  out  any
       work  around  needed  to  make  suspend to both work. See README.s2ram-
       whitelist and README.Debian for more information.
