Laptop model is an Acer Travelmate 800. STR/S3 worked flawlessly in fc5/fc6. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.21-1.3142.fc7 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. clicking through the config options of gnome energy manager 2. 3.

Could you please show the results of "cat /sys/power/state"?
[jan@val ~]$ cat /sys/power/state mem disk
It looks like the energy manager has its story wrong. 'Mem' is suspend to ram, and you would see standby there if S1 was supported.
Does the menu say standby instead of suspend? If so, we should perhaps reassign this to some other component. The next problem will of course be figuring out which one.
No, it wasn't the menu saying standby. The LEDs of the laptop were blinking in a manner that signaled S1 and not S3. Seems like the problem has disappeared with kernel 2.6.21-1.3163.fc7. Unfortunately suspend not working any longer on my laptop at all. the leds seem to blink (or not blink) the right way, but there is simply no activity any longer when resuming. (hdd led is on, but there ist no hearable activity - one time when resuming the caps-lock led was flashing in a constant intervalls.)
seems to be fiuxed in fc7 final.
