On my X40 > the situation is bad... With FC5, my Thinkpad T42p does suspend/resume reliably after adding the kernel parameter "acpi_sleep=s3_bios" to my grub.conf. No other tweaks were needed (1). Did you check out the information on the ThinkWiki (that is a *awesome* resource for Linux using ThinkPad owners)? In particular: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_make_ACPI_work Dax Kelson Guru Labs (1) I may have spotted a problem using the burner after a suspend/resume cycle. I think I remember reading something about that -- DMA not being re-enabled but that a fix was available. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
