Hello,

I just recently switched to uswsusp after having used the kernel suspend
for quite a while.  I've always used "acpi_sleep=s3_bios" on the command
line, but was inspired to try s2ram without it.  Unfortunately, the
current database entry does not seem to work.

Using "s2ram -f -a 1" works perfectly, as expected.  Please update the
entry in the whitelist accordingly.

I noticed, however, that this differs from most Thinkpad entries which
have 'S3_BIOS|S3_MODE' in the whitelist, and did some further testing.

As I said, "acpi_sleep=s3_bios" has always worked for me.  But during
resume, there will be some random(?) characters on the screen (the text
"inu" in yellow) before it switches to graphics mode.  "s2ram -f -a 1"
causes the exact same behaviour, as expected.

"s2ram -f -a 3" prevents this noise, and I assume that is the reason for
using 'S3_BIOS|S3_MODE' for most Thinkpads with an AIT chip.  Is that
correct?  I've attached a patch agaist the current CVS whitelist.c,
adding such an entry.  Note that the S3_MODE is purely cosmetic.


Machine details: 

obelix:/etc# /usr/sbin/s2ram -n
ATTENTION:
Your machine is in the whitelist  but the entry has not been confirmed.
Please try to find the best options and report them as explained on
http://en.opensuse.org/S2ram.

Machine matched entry 303:
    sys_vendor   = 'IBM'
    sys_product  = '2376*'
    sys_version  = ''
    bios_version = ''
Fixes: 0x2c  VBE_SAVE VBE_POST UNSURE 
This machine can be identified by:
    sys_vendor   = "IBM"
    sys_product  = "2376G35"
    sys_version  = "ThinkPad T42"
    bios_version = "1RETDNWW (3.19 )"
See http://en.opensuse.org/S2ram for details.

If you report a problem, please include the complete output above.
