That is, I have code that will suspend-to-ram and wake up the machine, and I have code that deals even with doing so on SMP (is your machine SMP ?), but the problem is to rvive the video card. So it pretty much depends what video card you have in there... If it's an nvidia, it's hopeless. If it's an ATI, I can probably make it work, though it might require some time ...
