Well, I own an ibook G4 where I just installed sid. I recompiled 2.6.9
with the sleep patch #7: it does the work, but I've run into some
problems that seem to be common:
1) The alsa system has some glitches
2) Sleep does not if either dri or usb are used
3) Random instabilities if I put the machine to sleep frequently (say
once every 10 mins).
I'm sorry not being more precise, but I am under pressure at work and do
not have time to trace the bug #3 with properly.
Hope these glitches will be over once the patch does it into the
official kernel.
BTW, thanks for the great work you are doing, Ben
Giuseppe
