Hello,

I got a T60 recently (2007-68U), and so far I haven't been able to get
suspend/resume working. Does anyone have a working configuration for
that? If yes I'd really appreciate the details such as kernel version and
suspend method.

For the record, here are things I've tried which didn't work:

- suspend to RAM using Fn-F4, or "echo ram" > /sys/power/state;
  the disk doesn't wake up on resume. (for more details, see
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=183138 and bug
  169201) Tried with kernel versions 2.6.16, Fedora kernel-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5, 
  2.6.16-1.2088_FC6smp, and 2.6.16-1.209?_FC6smp (don't have the number
  here). Also an Ubuntu "Dapper Drake" preview.

- swsusp2 using 2.6.16 kernel, this panics on resume with flashy special
  effects, for example a screen full of garbage, or the dreaded
  unexpected NMI message. This even with a fairly minimal kernel and no
  modules loaded (booted using "init=/bin/sh")>

I'd really appreciate any hints on getting this working, I'd hate having
to go back to using my T40...
