[ltp] T41p 2373 and ACPI

[Patrick Huber]

Thanks everyone, for these informations. So obviously sometimes it works and 
sometimes it doesn't work.

Because of a) acpi really doesn't want to work, whatever I try (Francois, your 
config didn't work either) and b) The system draws too much power while in 
apm standby anyways (There is a bug report: 
http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3022)...

... swsusp has become a real alternative. I guess swsusp2 (patching the 
vanilla kernel) is the way to go, isn't it?
