No problem... Glad to help. Oh and I did this. cd /usr/bin as root vi jsuspend (j for james) #!/bin/sh /usr/sbin/pmsuspend close it ... chmod it 755 then I used DrakConf to add this to the the menu. Then I added it to the taskbar as well. Now I just click the icon and it goes to sleep. Just wish I could get the little blue botton on my box to work the way it does with APM (buggy bios.)
