Hi Bart,

I've been doing some more experimenting this evening!

I removed acpi-support and acpi-support-base completely (even removing
/etc/acpi and the something /var directory).  To my astonishment,
although I lost LTM functionality completely and some function of the
bespoke Thinkpad keys, suspending, hibernating, and resuming, all worked
correctly!  After playing with pm-utils it's clear that my machine is
using that package to manage suspending and resuming.  I apologise for
that, I really thought acpi-support was managing it all.

I've been doing some further reading on the whole Debian/Ubuntu ACPI
framework, and reading #451380, it is fairly clear that things are
changing and it isn't necessarily clear in what direction things will
end up :D

To this end, I think this bug report isn't really valid, as I can't
expect acpi-support to manage LTM settings for my hard disk, when
resuming from a pm-utils based suspend or hibernate!

What I will hope for the future is that pm-utils will take on more
responsibility/control of the ACPI framework, and will lodge a bug
report with them in the future if it is necessary and appropriate to do so.
