Does that mean, if you remove 98smart-kernel-video (i.e. the acpi quirks are applied for your graphics adapter), you can successfully suspend with 2.6.26 kernels?
Matthew had suggested this hook upstream, so I CCed him for comments.If it's indeed the case, that 2.6.26 still requires quirks for some intel graphics adapters, we should either refine the checkes in 98smart-kernel-video (but tbh I don't know which criteria we could use) or remove this hook again (also upstream).
Cheers, MichaelP.S: Maybe it would make sense to take this discusssion to the pm-utils mailing list.
