If not, just get it from http://developer.intel.com/technology/iapc/acpi/downloads/acpi-20020404-2.4.18.diff.gz you will have a full ACPI support. > Something else I would like to ask is: Is there any tool / program > / > module that could make linux hibernate ?

You can make your laptop go to a sleep state, but it will probably freeze before reaching it because it won't have all peripherals prepared to hibernate. > Thanks in Advance > > Fernando Jr -- Mike Hommey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "Many that live deserve death.
