How to turn a functioning laptop into something useless

[Leslie Satenstein]

If you have problems with suspend, it is sometimes due to the swap area being too small.

I believe that in place of a swap partition, some distributions are using a swap file, so that swap file size is less significant. 

See what size the swap file is on your pc

I understand.. There was a mail a few weeks ago where I said everything. relating to my specs and my problem and what I have tried and the bug I send in. 
If we need me to this again I will but is does feel sometimes that you have to do this of and over again.. then for a week or so you hear nothing. Then you ask again and you need to start form the bottom again..

Like I said I if required I will do it again and I will then tried to see if I can get detail in the logs but I am no pro so would 10 to 1 not know what I am looking at.
but when I get home I will delete my logs and try to suspend and see what is coming up.

Hi Fastie

When you note a problem, and are frustrated, step back a minute and think of the person you are writing to.

You could start in a structured way.

a)  My computer is a xxxx with yyy amounts of memory, and with zzzz etc.

(Describe the computer)
b) I installed the F10 software (32 bit or 64 bit version) and I have the following problem.
c) I tried the following to fix it.
d) Can you offer help.

That is the approach.


Your approach is like the following.

Fastie to Doctor on phone, I have pain in my body, and it hurts. 
Doctor to Fastie.  Tell me where you have pain
Fastie to Doctor,  You tell me, you are the doctor. Don't you know by my message what hurts me?
