Re: APM Suspend Problem

[Nigel Cunningham <ncunningham@clear.net.nz>]

Howdy.

Dunno if I'm an expert, but I might be able to help. None of the Linux
based suspends (2.4 or 2.6) will get started unless something like acpid
pushes them. If a laptop suspends without running acpid or similar, it
must be doing it from the BIOS.

Regards,

Nigel
