I thought I should write back to the list and confirm what others have already said: this problem is fixed in 2.6.4, and suspend/resume actually works even better than in 2.4.20-ben10. Useful resources for the big switch to 2.6: http://malik.homelinux.org/ibook/ibook-2.6.html explains what packages to install to get 2.6 working on a Debian powerpc, and some config issues. One gotcha I found is that in the provided config file, http://malik.homelinux.org/ibook/config-2.6.3-rc3-ben1 , the item CONFIG_MAC_SERIAL must be commented out in order for the compile to succeed. Also, contrary to what some people have said, I didn't find it necessary to switch to ALSA -- there is still an OSS dma_sound module that seems to work on the iBook2. Thanks to all who wrote me to help. -- Kevin B.
