It is a Maxdata Eco 4500A, which is a German brand, so not many people know it, I guess (nice thing about it: ships without Windows if you want :-)). Well, it's supposed to have full ACPI support, and most of the things do work (battery status with a few errors once in a while, ac adapter status, thermal zone, processor frequency scaling, ...). But "Suspend to RAM via ACPI" is giving me problems, and as far as I have heard, this is quite common? > Other than the known broken suspend /resume with ATI proprietary linux > drivers (issue 218 on the ATI website) I would have thought that every > laptop made in the last couple of years would have reasonable ACPI > support. For an AMD64-based model I would think it even more likely. Well, but does reasonable ACPI support also mean that Linux will be able to use it perfectly? I thought this was one area, where the Linux kernel is still a bit short? But maybe I will just have to test and fiddle more, to get it to work. > I would suggest you ask some questions on the debian-amd64 lis Yes, I guess I will give this or the acpi mailing list a try.
