One thing to keep in mind (it might be more needed for g-p-m and KDE equivalent) : users might think they laptop are really "off" (harddisk not running) and moving it in a backpack or whatever and the "hibernate part" could be started while laptop is not a "physicaly" stable position. Maybe g-p-m / kpowersave should warn users the first time they enable "hybrid" suspend (with explanation on the timeout).. -- Frederic Crozat Mandriva _______________________________________________ devkit-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/devkit-devel
