ACPI suspend/resume state

2009-03-15 Thread alemao
Hi,

What's the state of ACPI suspend/resume today in OpenBSD?
I really appreciate all the work that you great developers are doing
to add support to new hardware, new or rewritten network services and
stuff like that, but i don't see any desire to support ACPI
suspend/resume.
There's something that 'normal' users can do to helps it's development
(donations, hardware, etc...)?

Thanks.

It's being worked on, slowly.

Why do you ask a question if you've already made up your own (wrong)
answer?

Get all sorts of modern laptops to the developers.

Ouch.

It's really hard to try place one word in apropos section
