@Dustin: problems with suspend/resume _are_ kernel bugs, and in fact
several people reported that it was working with .32 and .36. The quirks
in pm-utils are just workarounds to kernel bugs.

So if we find a set of quirks which improves matters on these models,
I'm happy to put them into pm-utils in a maverick update. However,
comment 35 isn't quite appropriate for that, as it hardcodes vt7 (which
is very often wrong, at latest with user switching or if you log out and
back in). Also, pm-utils already does a chvt call unless it has an
explicit quirk for that laptop model in its database which says to not
do so. Thus I doubt that this is a sufficient workaround, and the
comments above seem to indicate that it doesn't actually fix the
problem. It might change some timing so that the frequency of failures
changes a bit?

Wrt. the Fedora bug, they closed it when they added the quirk DB to the
package. We have always had the quirks in our package already, so
apparently that's not sufficient.

Does anyone have a /var/cache/pm-utils/last_known_working.quirkdb ?
