"Hybrid suspend" means to do a combination of suspend-to-disk and suspend-to-ram, keeping the machine powered on until battery runs low.

Advantages of this technique are:

- The user doesn't have to chose between to choices (suspend or hibernate) which are meaningless to him

- No risk of loosing data when running out of battery while suspended

Disadvantages are:

- It is slower than just suspend-to-ram
