I tested your solution on Edgy 6.10 Release with no hacks in place, I am pleased to say that following your instructions worked without any issues. Suspend and Hibernate worked!
* Note in the /etc/default/acpi-support file I did not comment out the: - ACPI_SLEEP = true or the - ACPI_HIBERNATE=true both lines were left uncommented. -- Suspend and Hibernate are broken on an IBM Thinkpad R50e https://launchpad.net/bugs/47508 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
