My display does go off, so that's not a problem.  But I want the system
to go into standby / suspend.  The bootprocedure takes a long time if I
just want to sit down to read my e-mail.  But, leaving my desktop on
7x24 costs me Eur 250,- per year in power costs. (Yes, it's that
expensive here).  I just want to save on my power bill ;)

Kind regards,

Mark
