You could if you want, but try closing the lid - does it suspend with the card in? If not, then it's below the level of userspace programs like apmd, and is likely either a kernel-level or hardware-level issue. I have this problem with PCMCIA cards in my laptop, and I have heard that this is a 'known issue' that people are working on. I have just resigned myself to it for now. Sorry to not be more help. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | Never pay a compliment as if expecting | | steve@lobefin.net | a receipt. | | http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------
