Yes. > I generally agree with the idea, but the patch needs a clean up, IMHO. However, we don't know which consoles are safe to stay alive during suspend. Generally, defaulting to suspending them all is not a bad idea IMHO. And IIRC it is plain luck if a serial console survives the suspend (or was the serial code fixed recently?) So i do not care too much, but my / Frank's patch was shorter :-) and safer. -- Stefan Seyfried QA / R&D Team Mobile Devices | "Any ideas, John?"
