10.4: Enable safe sleep on some older Macs
This is nice. The only thing that bothers me is that I can't trigger safe sleep other than by removing the battery in my PB.
10.4: Enable safe sleep on some older Macs
If you read the linked blog, it explains how to make safe sleep the default, I believe. I didn't test it, though.
I tried it and it works fine
I am using this hibernate mode as my default and it works fine. It takes a while to start back up (30 seconds-ish) though. I'm using it on 1.5 17" PB G4. I've been using it for 2 days now.

Thanks, rob. I did read the blog, but what I was looking for is apparently not yet possible (as evidenced in the blog entry's comments, in which people are asking for the same thing...).
A proper hibernate mode would be nice ...
If I hibernate my work Dell laptop, there is no battery consumption while the machine is hibernating. It can hibernate for a long period, and the battery is still fully charged when I bring it back to life. This is very useful, as I can work without having to find a power outlet immediately.

You do not understand Safe Sleep properly--it works much like the one on your Dell.

Actually, I think he does. It's true that Safe Sleep doesn't use any power, but (as designed) the computer only enters Safe Sleep once it has exhausted its battery in normal Sleep. So, while you don't lose anything, you do need a source of power in order to use it. |
