<font size=3>I'll raise the question to the next level....<br><br>
Has there been any discussion of putting any power management support
into the LinuxBIOS. I've got a possible need for some basics, like
suspend to RAM. Classic APM might be enough and simple to
implement. ACPI would be a good choice, but I'm not sure about how
much ROM foot print would be needed.<br><br>

Hello Ron,<br><br>
Sorry for this unsolicited mail, but I am tempted to<br>
request you to get me this moderator approval so that<br>
this mail (see forwarded note) makes it to the list.<br>
This mail of mine has been sitting with the moderator<br>
for many days.<br><br>
I am assuming that you are the moderator, if not<br>
excuse me.<br><br>
Regards,<br>
