I tested it on my I3500: FN-A works fine. I have a partitioned
drive with Win '98 in the first partition and Linux in the remaining ones.
I'm using LILO as boot manager. Suspend-to-disk works basically without
problems. Basically means that the sound system doesn't survive the
suspend; it will work again only after a cold reboot. I must test some
day the OSS sound system ...
