Cool: I'm using 2.6.16-rc3 with an x40 and ACPI without problems. > What's odd is that the hard disk spins up but the LED > (suspend) indicator still keeps blinking and then I have > no option except to power cycle.

That could be because in single-user mode some kernel modules are not being loaded and/or code paths executed. That could suggest a bug in one of the modules you are using. I have an acpid suspend.sh which is trigged by lid close events and unloads the USB module prior to the suspend action. Such a script can also turn off the backlight for radeon-based thinkpads and do other stuff, like change VT to avoid video corruption, etc. I think I based mine on <http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_configure_acpid> If you can identify a trouble-module by trial-and-error you could use this to unload it before suspending. I'd then urge you to report it to the kernel bugzilla if it isn't already :) -- Jon Dowland http://alcopop.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
