From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040207 Firefox/0.8 Description of problem: I feel like the Linux Kernel does not support notebooks : (I have a Siemens E685) - when I close the screen of my notebook, and open it again, my system becomes very very very slow. - While it is fully supported in the last versions of microsoft windows, in linux, notebook users do not have a true battery management, a full standby support. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Close your notebook Additional info:
suspend support is still very much in development in the upstream 2.6 kernel. This will never be backported to 2.4 (nor RHL9). (I assume you misfiled this, and didnt really mean RHL 4.2)
