Laptop improvement
Hi,
I'm forwarding you an email from Martin Sebesta related to IBM T60

Any help is appreciated. I have to mention I see similar behavior
of my HP laptop when it's resurrected from software suspend sometimes
even on FC6. CPU load is at 100% immediately after waking the laptop up.
Did anyone from you experience similar problems? Is there known
any workaround?
Thanks,
Jindrich
