Wish I were that far - I still fight the radeonfb screen flicker, and the trackpad is driving me nuts (seems to insert right mouse clicks at random once in a while, or so X thinks). Next on my list is sleep/suspend support. That's a PB 5,5, BTW. Need to talk to BenH about PMU support so we can at least read the battery status from /dev/pmu... Michael
