There is an entry for X200: <match key="system.hardware.product" contains_outof="C400;C840;D500;D505;D800;X200"> <merge key="power_management.quirk.vbe_post" type="bool">true</merge> <merge key="power_management.quirk.vbestate_restore" type="bool">true</merge> </match> lshal | grep quirk should list them > > This patch (plus a workaround to an issue with pm-utils, see > bug #499442) works for me, though you may want to refactor > the existing rule(s). > We currently have a very unfortunate situation wrt. to Intel graphics cards. According to one of the kernel hackers, mjg59, Intel graphics drivers no longer need quirks with kernel >= 2.6.26 and will actually fail to resume if you apply any quirks. That's why we filter out the quirks in pm-utils. As it turns out, this strategy does not seem to work for all laptops. Either way (filtering out or not), we will break resume on certain laptops.
