- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.

- These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.

sudo
in Windows.
- No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

I only hate it because I can't figure out how to run a blocking script before everything else when a suspend is initiated.
Do scripts in
/usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/
not block? I've never had one fail to complete before suspend. I had to use one last year to dump debug stats before and after sleep while we were helping debug Cezanne sleep issues.I guess not because in my attempts to get this working I did put a script there. Does * expansion not work in these scripts? Mind sharing your script if you still have one? I have 3 tabs open to learn systemd when I have time, I did watch a video so far :)
I'll have to dig them up the next time I fire up the laptop I used them on, I'll also look and see if I shoved them into a git repo.
There's some discussion here on the Arch forum that should be able to get you rolling though: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=276046
That should show you the general form those scripts need to take. I only had to use pre/post sleep, I never needed a
$2
level parameter.I'll check it out, thanks bro!
