Hello,

this seems to be a known problem. (All 2.6.17.*-kernels from Redhat are
broken). I solved this issue by compiling a new kernel on my own.
But still there are other issues, e.g. wakeup from works, but
the systems goes instantly to suspend. After the third wake up,
the system stays on. Even this is known and documented in RH bugzilla.

Cheers,
