Package: hal Version: 0.5.8.1-6 Severity: wishlist Hi,
Hal should have a method to select which suspend method is going to be used. Each laptop model need a different method, with different configurations. Other distros have a power management script that handle's this, but as Debian doesn't the only way I see to make this work is to put some kind of SUSPEND_METHOD and HIBERNATE_METHOD in /etc/default/hal, and use the appropiate script from hal-system-power-* scripts. I have prepared a patch, but I have to polish it a bit before commiting.
