acpi or apm suspend _and_resume_?

[Jason 'vanRijn' Kasper]

I'll take either.  =:)

for some odd reason, APM suspending doesn't work in fc3t2, though it did
work wonderfully in fc2.  well, rather, I should say that APM resuming
doesn't work at all.  the laptop suspends fine, but refuses to resume.

I have an IBM A31 Thinkpad, which, I believe, does not play nicely with
linux ACPI.  at least, I've never gotten it to--as far as suspending
goes.  I'd LOVE to hear from someone on the list that I'm mistaken,
please!! =:)

I pulled down a vanilla 2.6.8.1 tree and patched it with software-
suspend-2.0.0.105-for-2.6.8.1 in hopes that at least that would work.
And no luck there.  I don't know why it doesn't work, but it doesn't.
APM suspend DOES work with a vanilla 2.6.8.1 kernel, though.  However,
with the vanilla kernel, I cannot sync my Clie.  udev issues, I believe.

I've filed a bug for the APM suspend/resume problem at
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=133671.

So, my questions are:

- is there a newer kernel available than 2.6.8-1.541 that would fix my
suspend and udev problems?

- is there something I can do to get my vanilla kernel to play nicely
with udev so that at least I can sync my Clie?

- what are other linux-laptop-bearing people (Alan?) doing to suspend
their laptops?

thanks!!
