Actaully, removing the freezer from the suspend code path is simple. You only need to remove calls to freeze_processes() and thaw_processes() from kernel/power/main.c . That said, I don't think that PPC does what you say only. We've discussed this a bit on linux-pm, in this thread: https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/linux-pm/2007-May/012242.html In particular, please see this message: https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/linux-pm/2007-May/012301.html Greetings, Rafael - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
