Someone on IRC said something about via stuff, see [1]. Maybe worth
trawling the Red Hat bugzilla about this.

Thanks,

Apr 22 16:47:41 _vitb_home_     I made suspend/hibernate work on my via-based laptop
Apr 22 16:48:29 davidz  _vitb_home_: or sudo remount it with the options you want, but yea
Apr 22 16:48:46 davidz  _vitb_home_: pjones and others are responsible for pm-utils
Apr 22 16:48:48 davidz  just file a bug
Apr 22 16:48:51 davidz  what was the fix?
Apr 22 16:48:56 *       davidz just curious
Apr 22 16:49:39 _vitb_home_     vbetool stuff restore thing called only for intel/ati stuff
Apr 22 16:49:49 _vitb_home_     and did nothing with others
Apr 22 16:50:03 davidz  ok
Apr 22 16:50:05 davidz  sounds good
Apr 22 16:50:07 _vitb_home_     hereby it sleeps but does not wake up
Apr 22 16:50:13 davidz  we definitely could use more data like that
Apr 22 16:50:41 davidz  eventually you will be able to write an .fdi file (when
pm-utils reads data from hal)
Apr 22 16:50:45 davidz  but that's another discussion :-)
