I don't remember the reason why I originally did choose this one instead = of S4. I just checked that S4 and S4Bios work the same on 2.6.11-mm1 (even with = my PCMCIA wireless card connected, great!). From what I remember, I didn't see any difference between S4 and S4Bios = in recent vanilla kernels. By the way, it seems that Radeon makes suspend slower because it needs to be blanked or something like that. Is there any way to avoid this ?
