Yeah! If it is a pseudo-embedded device, it can take care of because the application ecosystem is already established there. It won't be a generic thing for all embedded devices. Of course, every application receives the event and it can act on the way it wants (I did not understand step 1/2/3...).

Well, if you have a truly embedded device then likely you don't care about this at all since the applications will work together much closer than on a desktop system. Also, you likely have much stricter requirements in that each application *must* be able to do exactly steps 1/2/3 before the system is suspended. Also, suspend will likely be *much* faster too. If it's pseudo-embedded like Nokia's N770/800 then you can very well run things like hal to handle it. johannes _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
