I'm still trying to get APM suspend/hibernate working on the thinkpad 570e,
running ubuntu dapper.

I created a hibernation partition with tphdisk, but whenever I try to
suspend/hibernate the laptop, the thing just locks up, hard.

I'm running the current Ubuntu dapper kernel (it's a 2.6.x kernel)

questions:

The hibernation partition-- what type of hibernation partition do I have to
make?  is it a0 (IBM hidden hibernation)?  Is it a regular vfat?  My
thinkpad has 320 mb of RAM + 2.5 MB vram:  is that too big for msdosfs?
when I change the partition type, do I also have to make a new filesystem?
Does the hibernation partition have to be mounted, and if so, how and where?

the kernel--would I be better of trying this with a 2.4.x kernel?  all the
APM howtos for this model thinkpad are from the Debian Potato era.

I'm really at wits' end here, guys.
