Does this patch obsolete the patch to "release global lock in acpi_ec_wait"? It's part of bugzilla 6749 "Thinkpad A21m freeze after second supedn to RAM" <http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6749> and its direct url is <http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=8481&action=view>. Or did that patch get integrated via some other flow of code? It fixed the S3 suspend hangs on my TP 600X. It might also help the T60: Once in a long while it would hang on suspend and it reminded me of the 600X's behavior (though the T60 has an ancient kernel, 2.6.17-10 from ubuntu, which is why I never filed a report). I work around the problem by unloading the fan and thermal modules before suspending. It also hangs once in a while on resume, but those problems will hopefully be resolved by a more recent kernel. -Sanjoy `Not all those who wander are lost.' (J.R.R.
