As I understand it, a pretty recent ACPI4Linux version should be included in this kernel by default. Also, I've patched this kernel with Suspend2 (www.suspend2.net), in case that's of consequence. ACPI "sleeping" to memory works pretty well on my computer, but I was wondering about the "standby" mode. My /sys/power/state reports that it's capable of both "mem" and "standby," but "mem" is the only option that seems to work. With "standby" all I get is a message that reads "acpi_pm_prepare does not support 1" on virtual terminal 63. Is there still enough demand to continue development of this feature, or has it kind of fallen off the map because users get enough functionality out of sleeping to memory? Or should standby be functioning now? Is there possibly something wrong with my configuration?
