Can anybody confirm that for me? On the whole it worjed fine for me, except for a BIOS bug that broke suspending within X. I put a wrapper around zzz to switch VCs away from X when the machine was suspended which solved the problem. It should have used `vidcontrol -s` but I wrote it in C due to ignorance. You might also be able to solve the problem by upgrading the BIOS.
