I guess no... However, I'm very ignorant of suspend/resume, so not sure I'm doing the right thing. - the T61p manual details "standby" and "hibernation" modes. Is this what you refer to by suspend? I can go into standby with Fn+F4, or with "acpiconf -s 3" but can't seem to get back. The disk starts, but the screen is corrupted, kind of black with very few white dots. I have to power off/on. The Fn+F12, hibernation mode code, does not seem to do anything. - I've had a quick look at acpi(4) and apm(8). I have: hw.acpi.supported_sleep_state: S3 S4 S5 hw.acpi.s4bios: 0 - Anything I should check/test in BIOS? I see that power management is enabled in BIOS. Is that enough? Anton
