The problem here is, I think, f**k'ed up scripts to pmud. Look into /etc/power/pwrctl; there are special things done there for Core99 machines, and not all of them work on the TiBook. Most problematic seem to be the hdparm stuff. I've had my kernel complain a few times about DMA IRQ timeout, resting IDE buses, and some such, when I experimented with sleep. > snooze -f works fine; the led comes on immediately, and it seems to > wake up quickly when I press a key. Which means you're running a very recentish kernel from benh; those have sleep suport for the TiBook. FYI, mine just crashed after aking it up this way.
