Hi William

I had the same problems with that, but now all works fine even centrino wifi.
I'm using gentoo with a linux kernel 2.4.23-win4lin. It supports apm (not 
acpi) and suspend and wake up fine (excepts if I active).
You could try this kernel downloading from a gentoo mirror. I'll send you 
my .config file.
