[Martin Pitt]

Hello Olivier,

sorry for the late answer, I'm collecting lost threads/patches on this
ML.

This doesn't look appropriate to me. Suspend quirks are highly
dependent on the video card/driver, I don't think that the motherboard
alone suffices to determine the right set. I'm afraid that systems
without proper DMI data (i. e. particular laptop models which come
with a fixed graphics card type) cannot be adequately represented in
hal-info. Also, with the new generation video drivers (KMS) this is
all obsolete anyway.

Thanks,

Martin
