Awesome!! Now that I've found the acpi log file (I was tailing 
/var/log/messages), I can confirm that it has the same label on my 
distro too (FC3).

That's interesting: with the previous kernel, the ipw2200 driver tried 
to resume - it just had a problem reloading the firmware...

No problems, I am happy to unload/reload drivers.

Yess!! Found the link! I can download a patched FC3 drop-in replacement 
kernel, and give Suspend2 a try. I'll let you know which seems better 
for me, suspend to memory, or suspend2 to disk.

I feel for you. For almost the entire time I ran RH9 on my Dell, I 
couldn't get 3D acceleration working - I was the only kid on the block 
without it... *shiff*


Thank you again for all your help! So far, the changes have been very 
easy - I was just having trouble finding out how it actually worked (was 
spoilt by the previous version working out of the box).


Cheers!
Nik.

If you use hibernate script, it's all automatic.

Bear in mind that suspend2 or swsusp, it doesn't change whether suspend
to disk or suspend to ram works. If it works, it works.

it's either echo mem or echo ram

Well, it should be 'just works'.

Only ppl like us(techies) will know the diff
