Which reminds me.. I've got a Twinhead PowerSlim (beeaaaaaaaaaaaaauuuttiful!) and I've likewise gotten suspend/restore working perfectly thanks to APM. I'll be switching to ACPI soon, though. Anyway, Twinhead's BIOS suspend-to-disk makes use of a DOS tool called HDPREPEZ to prepare the suspend-to-disk partition, but since I zapped my DOS partition a long time ago and I can't be bothered to mess up my partitions now... is there a way for me to get, say, suspend-to-file working under Linux? Right now I leave it on suspend-to-mem and it restores flawlessly even after a couple of days of sleep.

Yeah, you guys should see us here... between the 120-day trial versions of Windows 2000, the unopened Windows XP RC2 (RC2 ba? Lemme check), and the free box of Windows XP Home Edition that Microsoft still owes us for the contest we joined... we have way too much Windows. I'm not sure if we've ever installed any of them, at that. <laugh> -------------------------------------------------------------------- Sacha Chua <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 3 BS CS Ateneo geek =) Ateneo Cervini-Eliazo Networks (ACENT) tel: 63(2) 426-6001 loc 5925 BOFH excuse #226: A star wars satellite accidently blew up the WAN. _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
