Im Nachhinein war es gaaaanz einfach… Füge [atrpms]name=Fedora Core $releasever – $basearch – ATrpmsbaseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/fc$releasever-$basearch/atrpms/stable zur yum.conf bzw. als Datei in /etc/yum.repos.d hinzu installiere hibernate-suspend2 kernel-suspend2-2.6.18-1.2849_1.fc6.cubbi_suspend2 Die Kernelversion kann…
