Well, we'll see how it evolves. Anyway: thx for your great work
Richard!
No problem. I'm hoping to write a tutorial at some stage (after my
finals!) showing how this all works, i.e. adding simple xml file to add
stuff like vbestate and vbepost to make resume work.
The idea is that people who can't suspend get the systems to work using
pm-suspend with the --quirk options, and then send a report
(automatically?) so we can add the DMI data in hal-info for the next
update.
