| |
Hi there,
A couple of days ago there was a discussion about a problem introduced in 2.4.10 that would prevent APM on a Dell Latitude C600 (and possibly others) from entering suspend mode.
A closer investigation revealed that the patch meant to correct a problem with the internal ps2 pointing device on suspend is at fault. Commenting out the entry in arch/i386/kernel/dmi_scan.c that triggers the activation of this logic for the C600 allows the machine to suspend normally.
Does anybody know the purpose of this change? It seems to address a problem I've never seen on my computer...
