That reminds me of something else odd that I noticed. While I had CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED=y and was trying to get Fn+F4 to give me Suspend to RAM somehow, I did try setting /sys/blah/blah/blah/hotkey_enable to 0. That caused the Fn+F4 key to become active, except that it wanted to do Hibernation to Disk instead: a window popped up to tell me (IIRC) that my kernel command line didn't have a good resume= Hugh - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
