Hi,
for those here using Ubuntu 7.04 on their thinkpad, be aware that a
recent upgrade of HAL in backports repository breaks quite a lot of
functionalities, including suspend when lid closed.
- If backports are not activated in your sources.list (or from
synaptic), you are safe.
- If you want to activate backports and upgrade your system, you can
block version of HAL from synaptic menu before.
- If your already had this broken HAL upgrade and you are experiencing
troubles with automount and suspend, you can revert to previous version
from synaptic menu.
