Do they "curse BIOS vendors and Windows actually have (kernel) graphics drivers that know how to resume the video. If you boot save mode, they go w/o graphics drivers, and have similar problems to us. > btw., the s2ram database seems quite a bit spotty: > > $ ./s2ram -n > Machine is unknown. > This machine can be identified by: > sys_vendor = "System manufacturer" > sys_product = "System Product Name" > sys_version = "System Version" > bios_version = "ASUS A8N-E ACPI BIOS Revision 1008" > > $ ./s2ram -n > Machine is unknown. > This machine can be identified by: > sys_vendor = "Hewlett-Packard " > sys_product = "compaq nx9030 (PG630ET#ABD) " > sys_version = "Rev 1 " > bios_version = "F.15 " > See http://en.opensuse.org/S2ram for details.

Mail them to seife@xxxxxxx, and he'll extend the whitelist ;-).
