Hi List,
I recently updated to Ubunto Hoary on my iBook G4 800. I use the kernel
2.6.10 that comes with ubuntu.
Still I encounter freezes sometimes when the computer awakes from sleep
and cpufreqd tries to change the frequency afterwards.
Is there anything I can do to debug?

I will wait for 2.6.12 then.

Also, I have some comments to add to your suspend/resume script:

Hi all!
Where are the latest patches to activate software suspend for the 2.6.7 kernel?
I can't find them in the archives. It would be very nice if anybody could
repost them. I would put up a website containing the latest patches then.
