I don't exactly know what you mean with this, I know that with my laptop (HP
Omnibook 6000) there are a lot of problems with the 'standby' mode. If I
press the standby button and unplug my computer and then start it again, it
hangs.
What I have learned is that it has to do with a lot of unclear stuff in apm.
So the apm deamon is taking care of this. You could try to google for your
laptop and apm, just to see if others have come up with some kind of
solution. In the meantime I would turn off the power options in KDE.
Maybe others will come with better solutions.
Cheers,
Jord
