Resume from hibernate used to be very slow and unreliable on linux systems. But that's no longer the case. I have been using pm-hibernate without any problems ever since I installed Fedora 18 on this Dell Laptop with 4GB memory, 10GB swap space, Intel core i5 CPU (four cpus). The demo shows hibernate and suspend with 10 virtual desktops, all restored within a few seconds of boot option selected from boot menu. (Reading the bios takes longer).

This is also practice for me: using a logitech webcam on a linux PC to record what's happening on another machine.
