For beta2, we want the Suspend menu item to bring up a dialog containing a disclaimer that suspending may crash on some machines. We also want to write out some relevant information from hal into a file, and ask the user to send that file in bugzilla if suspend does actually crash.
The relevant information from hal would be at least the laptop model and vendor, I think, plus possibly the list of loaded kernel modules. If we remove the file after each successful resume, we may also be able to detect its presence during boot, and ask the user if he wants to send it off.

QE nak . . . features were frozon long again and with the compressed schedule, I would be derelict in giving an ack.
Quality Engineering Management has reviewed and declined this request. You may appeal this decision by reopening this request.

Should be fixed in hal-0.5.8.1-15.el5 gnome-power-manager-2.16.0-4.el5 and should work with SELinux enforcing (see bug 214510) if you use selinux-policy-2.4.3-4.el5 Requesting inclusion of the two former packages for beta2.
Actually the g-p-m package only had half the patch it needed. Ray and I just tested hal-0.5.8.1-15.el5 gnome-power-manager-2.16.0-6.el5 which works fine in Permissive mode. Still needs a fix in SELinux policy for enforcing mode, see bug 214510 for details. Thanks.
Fixed in Enforcing mode with new SELinux policy. hal-0.5.8.1-16.el5 gnome-power-manager-2.16.0-6.el5 I'll ask releng to include these in beta2.
hal-0.5.8.1-19.el5 and gnome-power-manager-2.16.0-7.el5 included in 20061218.1 trees.
