i have changed the /etc/acpi/sleepbtn.sh, and let it direct use the
sleep.sh. Now, my laptop could sleep, but couldn't wake up. it stucked
half way, after i press the Fn key and see some words in console and
with a blankscreen.

i googled for this issue, and try to add
option "VBERestore" "true" 
in my xorg.conf and doesn't help.
I have also seen in /etc/acpi/sleep.sh, there is comment:
# If gnome-power-manager or klaptopdaemon are running, let them handle
# policy
Since the suspend option in klaptopdaemon works well(well sleep&well
wake up), i guess maybe klaptopdaemon uses an other mechanism to let
the laptop suspend to ram? Or have i missed something?

By the way, it seems to be that this mailing list does not support
searching. I really think there must be someone in this list has had
the same problem. If i was wrong, please tell me, thanks.
