Yes, that's normal. You can also use [Action]-[Cancel] to suspend
instead. I'll fix that in the next fbvnc version, the [Power] button
wasn't mapped right when I wrote the previous version.

That's not normal.

The suspend/resume thing is rather hairy to get right, you need to make
sure that you don't have conflicting programs that are both trying to
handle it. Does OZ have some sort of power management running in the
background even with the GUI not running?
What did work for me was to have zapmd running if (and only if) the
Debian / fbvnc client environment is active, and fbvnc does the suspend
via "zsuspend" ("echo suspend > /dev/zapmd &").
The system hangs if zapmd is still running when Qtopia tries to suspend.
The "Fbvnc" wrapper shell script should handle starting and stopping
zapmd, but it won't work right if the "zdebian" startup script didn't
run, since it needs the "zapm proxy" to get it working from the chroot.
The clean solution would be to get the standard "apm -s" working instead
of having each environment do their own thing - I haven't tried OZ
recently, if it does work let me know please.
