What is worse is that APM.ADD does not switch the T61 into battery optimized when I unplug it so the battery only lasts about 1.5 hours. I can get 3 hours out of the battery under SUSE Linux. Does anyone have suspend and/or battery optimization working on their T61? According to Eugene he has reports of the T60 having Resume/Suspend working with ACPI 3.05, but no reports on the T61 other then Chuck's report of problems with ACPI 3.08 but he makes no mention of battery time, just problems with the Beer battery widget which works fine here. Mark. Welcome to the crowd. Do you have a 100 ft extension cord handy? :) I am running mine with APM disabled. I am not sure they will ever get this one fixed. I seriously doubt if IBM ever tested SMP kernels with APM.
