Hello,

just tried it twice so it can't be wrong :-)

Due to a mistake in the suspend script, I just discovered that S3 works
even without video_post. The console is unusable but frankly I don't
care. In all the situations where I needed S3 I was working under X and
X works marvelously. Even the ALPS touchpad [1].

Now only the Fn keys need to be implemented the right way to have this
computer perfectly supported by linux!

Ingredients:
* linux-2.6.9
* acpi-20040816-2.6.9.diff.gz
* software-suspend-2.1-for-2.6.9.tar.bz2 and
* alps.patch from synaptics-0.13.6.

So long and happy Z1-linuxing :-)
Ionut

[1] With swsusp2 the touchpad is much slower after resume, as if it lost
its resolution and/or acceleration settings. It gets better if you
restart X, but that's not an option.
