[ltp] suspend/resume 'facts'

[Marcel van Osenbruggen]

Hello,

I own a Thinkpad A31p (2653-L3G) and have been trying to get suspend/resume 
and hibernation (swsusp2) to work for a long time...

I succeeded both, but ...

- suspend/resume with X only works while not using the framebuffer. Otherwise 
the screen stays black or, with certain kernel-versions-patches-etc, the 
machine hangs.

- suspend/resume using a framebuffer AND X only works (for me) with X-DRI 
turned off.

- hibernation works with versions 2.6.10-2.1.5.14, 2.6.10-2.1.5.10 and 
2.6.11-rc1-2.1.5.14

- suspend/resume doesn't work with kernel 2.6.11-rc1

So, when trying to get suspend/resume and hibernation to work, keep these 
things in mind. Hopefully they can help you.
