Perhaps this is because the suspend command/process itself is (slightly?) wrong (at least "wrong" in the mental universe of this BIOS ;) and the machine sort-of suspends but due to this doesn't really resume... > it appears that I am not alone and many acer systems around 5720 are > affected, and don't have an nvidia device. So 5520 (I've seen this one already, didn't try resuming) as well perhaps. > Speaking of the led, I don't understand why you want that patch to be > applied at all. yes it makes the led work, but did you notice how well > it works?

Yeah, of course, but the first step would be to activate it, then the second step should be done (and more LED users would be annoyed about LED behaviour, thus it would hopefully be fixed soon ;)). Plus, and that's the more important part, there's certainly not only one trigger type available but several (some of which without frantic blinking). Without LED support you'd simply lose all trigger types ;) Andreas _______________________________________________ ath5k-devel mailing list ath5k-devel@lists.ath5k.org https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-devel
