Sorry. I should have explained myself better: The suspend to ram has
been solved, but there seem to be other issues, like swapping of the
optical drive (as far as I can tell, you need to have it connected on
boot for it to work). The problem with being restricted to certain hard
drives for upgrades is annoying too.

It seems that the t42p is more linux-friendly, at least for the time
being.

Thanks for your help!
