Something similar to session. But everything xterm , vi should be written back to the same state. 2) If there doesn't exist any such tool how does one proceed about writing it. It can be userspace or kernel. Nevermind the amount of memory to be saved. I have about 54MB used (shown by free). So i think i will have to write something of that order. The question is how does one save a process memory into file(disk) and then load the file after rebooting. If galeon could do that, then why not other programs.
