IBM upgraded their BIOS around March 1998, and right after that I sent my laptop in to get something fixed. (Blew something on the M/B.) While they had it, they upgraded the BIOS. At this point lots of things quit working -- I had to reconfigure my X server, and I started having APM problems. I'm not sure I've suspended the thing since then, and "shutdown -h" has *never* turned the machine off. (I notice that works for a lot of other models out there.) I wonder if something in the BIOS changed, I'm getting error messages that look like this in the syslog: Entire system suspend failure: errcode = 96 resumed from suspended mode (slept 00:00:20) I do pull the A/C plug before I try this, so it's not that. It seems like the APM BIOS is refusing to suspend, but I don't really know why. Anybody have any suggestions?
