Sony Vaio F270, FreeBSD 3.2+PAO, and the suspend (both to memory and to disk) work fine. When suspending to disk the 'progress screen' identifies itself as Phoenix NoteBIOS v4.0. I didn't have to do anything to get it to work, it just works. Just a thought -- suspend to disk requires a partition at the end of the disk with sysid 165, and it needs to be roughly 3 * size of RAM (mine has 64MB RAM, and the fdisk output is The data for partition 4 is: sysid 160,(unknown) start 12262320, size 408240 (199 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 811/ sector 1/ head 0; end: cyl 837/ sector 63/ head 239 N -- A different "distribution" of Linux is really a different operating system. They just refuse to call it that because it's bad press.
