Hello, I've been using FreeBSD on various laptops for years and I have had mixed success with suspend. On my Sony Vaio Z505 (450Mhz p2) with APM (zzz) it would suspend and wake flawlessly... but on my more recent computers, a thinkpad and more recently an Acer TravelMate 2300 - I have no luck. What happens with suspend (acpiconf -s 3) on the Acer is that it goes to sleep - and when I try to wake it up, it powers up - but the screen stays blank (off) and it never comes back. I'm wondering two things - 1) What's the general status of ACPI support - are there any docs that I can read that might give me a clue as to how far along ACPI support is? 2) Is there anything I can do to assist in getting the suspend and wake-up working? I've seen people post information and what looks like dumps for their laptops ACPI info, but I don't know what programs provide those dumps. Any assistance anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Jay
