Description Hamish Marson 2007-01-24 05:17:08 UTC
Most recent kernel where this bug did *NOT* occur: Unknown. Have only had SD

Distribution: Gentoo
Hardware Environment: IBM/Lenovo Thinkpad z61m (9540-HAG)
Software Environment: Gentoo with Vanilla Kernel.

Tested in 2.6.20.5 and confirmed that I can now suspend & resume with the TIFM drivers loaded...

Tested in 2.6.21.5 and confirmed that I can now suspend & resume with the TIFM
drivers loaded... (Not 2.6.20.5)
