With the latest FC6 kernel this module gets loaded and thus suspend fails. I rebuilt the same kernel but plopped this patch in. The module does not want to load: # /sbin/modprobe acpi-cpufreq FATAL: Error inserting acpi_cpufreq (/lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2708.cpufreq/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.ko): No such device This is why suspend works. But now this module won't load. -Louis
