I just uploaded new packages and all required files for the initrd are 
installed by the kernel package. So, tuxonice should just work by 
installing the packages. No configuration needed. Note that also the 
swap partition is already detected by tuxonice itself. No resume=... 
parameter needed anymore!

The hibernate package is just there as a backup solution. By default, 
everything is handled by pm-utils which works here at least (try to 
suspend with "pm-hibernate").

The kernel package uses tuxoniceui_text by default again since usplash 
has been removed from Ubuntu Lucid (plymouth is used now).
