Peter,
(and of course all other friends giving me some hope and support).

Let me understand better before I act.

I currently have a 2.6.11-rc2 with ibm_acpi-0.10, swsusp2 2.1.5.15(and a 
patch to this).

If I understand correctly I shoud edit the 
05-radeonfb-Thinkpad-Power.patch file by REPLACING/OVERWRITING the first 
.ident entry with proper values for my thinkpad (which I can see also 
with the dmidecode command) and the corresponding .matches entry.

I will then apply the patches in order ... did I get it ? :)

TIA,
Bob
