Yah, I guess we shouldn't bother with white lists then, it was only a few hours of hacking anyway :-). I'd love, though, to have some easy-to-configure scripts (like the suspend.sh script I've sent) shipped in the distro (even with questionable tools such as vbetool). > My laptop for instance > suspends just fine.

I suppose to achieve as good coverage as Windows we'd need to be bug-by-bug compatible as I understand that the Windows driver, acpi.sys or something, is a generic one... David
