I think I've caught on to what you're meaning. Is this better?

menu "Software Suspend 2"

config SOFTWARE_SUSPEND2
tristate "Software Suspend 2"
depends on PM
---help---
Software Suspend 2 is the 'new and improved' suspend support. You
can now build it as modules, but be aware that this requires
initrd support (the modules you use in saving the image have to
be loaded in order for you to be able to resume!)

See the Software Suspend home page (softwaresuspend.berlios.de)
for FAQs, HOWTOs and other documentation.

config SOFTWARE_SUSPEND2_CORE
def_bool SOFTWARE_SUSPEND2

if SOFTWARE_SUSPEND2
comment 'Image Storage (you need at least one writer)'
depends on SOFTWARE_SUSPEND2_CORE

config SOFTWARE_SUSPEND_SWAPWRITER
tristate ' Swap Writer'
depends on SWAP && SOFTWARE_SUSPEND2
---help---
This option enabled support for storing an image in your
swap space. Swap partitions are supported. Swap file
support is currently broken (16 April 2004).

comment 'Page Transformers'

config SOFTWARE_SUSPEND_LZF_COMPRESSION
tristate ' LZF image compression (Preferred)'
---help---
This option enables compression of pages stored during suspending
to disk, using LZF compression. LZF compression is fast and
still achieves a good compression ratio.

You probably want to say 'Y'.

config SOFTWARE_SUSPEND_GZIP_COMPRESSION
tristate ' GZIP image Compression (Slow)'
select ZLIB_DEFLATE
select ZLIB_INFLATE
---help---
This option enables compression of pages stored during Software Suspend
process. Pages are compressed using the zlib library, with a default
setting (in code) of fastest compression (still VERY slow!). If your swap
device is painfully slow compared to your CPU, you might possibly want
this. Then again, you might just want to upgrade your storage (if you
can).

Just in case you haven't gotten the hint yet, this option should be off
for most people. If will make your computer take a minute to suspend
when it could take seconds.

config SOFTWARE_SUSPEND_DEVICE_MAPPER
tristate ' Device Mapper support'
depends on BLK_DEV_DM
---help---
This option creates a module which allows Suspend to tell the
device mapper code to allocate enough memory for its work while
suspending. It doesn't do anything else, but without it, dm-crypt
won't work properly.

This option should be off for most people.

comment 'User Interface Options'

config SOFTWARE_SUSPEND_BOOTSPLASH
tristate ' Bootsplash support'
depends on BOOTSPLASH
---help---
This option enables support for Bootsplash (bootsplash.org). Suspend
can set the progress bar value and switch between silent and verbose
modes. (Silent mode is used when the debug level is 0 or 1).

config SOFTWARE_SUSPEND_TEXT_MODE
tristate ' Text mode console support'
depends on VT
---help---
This option enables support for a text mode 'nice display'. If you don't
have/want bootsplash support, you probably want this.

comment 'General Options'

config SOFTWARE_SUSPEND_DEFAULT_RESUME2
string ' Default resume device name'
---help---
You normally need to add a resume2= parameter to your lilo.conf or
equivalent. With this option properly set, the kernel has a value
to default. No damage will be done if the value is invalid.

config SOFTWARE_SUSPEND_KEEP_IMAGE
bool ' Allow Keep Image Mode'
---help---
This option allows you to keep and image and reuse it. It is intended
__ONLY__ for use with systems where all filesystems are mounted read-
only (kiosks, for example). To use it, compile this option in and boot
normally. Set the KEEP_IMAGE flag in /proc/software_suspend and suspend.
When you resume, the image will not be removed. You will be unable to turn
off swap partitions (assuming you are using the swap writer), but future
suspends simply do a power-down. The image can be updated using the
kernel command line parameter suspend_act= to turn off the keep image
bit. Keep image mode is a little less user friendly on purpose - it
should not be used without thought!

comment 'Debugging'

config SOFTWARE_SUSPEND_DEBUG
bool ' Compile in debugging output'
---help---
This option enables the inclusion of debugging info in the software
suspend code. Turning it off will reduce the kernel size but make
debugging suspend & resume issues harder to do.

For normal usage, this option can be turned off.

config SOFTWARE_SUSPEND_CHECKSUMS
tristate ' Compile checksum module'
---help---
This option enables compilation of a checksumming module, which can
be used to verify the correct operation of suspend.

For normal usage, this option can be turned off.
endif
