Hi:

I've written a report about F7 installation on a Toshiba Satellite A200:

http://www.immv.es/index.php?page=linux-on-a-toshiba-a200-12x

Still having two big problems:

- SUSPEND doesn't work as of current kernel (hibernate DOES work). 
Tested every quirk in HAL page. Nothing: my laptop suspends but never 
resumes (hangs, and find / doesn't work). Should I fill a bugzilla?

- HARD DISK HEADS suffer from emergency parking because of this 
unresolved bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=243021

The bug is now open for more than 20 days and being a critical thing, it 
hasn't been solved yet. I have to boot into Windows to poweroff my 
laptop so as not to damage hard disk heads.

Any hints or help? I hope that my report is of help to new users.

Regards,

Manuel Moran
