Ubuntu suspend

Speaking of suspend, it’s cool that it looks like Ubuntu supports it well in Hardy Heron (8.04). I’m not giving the credit all to Ubuntu; I’m sure lots of people contributed to that, since it’s certainly a huge endeavor to get the whole chain, from the kernel-BIOS interface up through the kernel and drivers up through the desktop environment up through applications, to live in a suspendable world.

I haven’t actually used it beyond a couple tests so far, because my lid latch problem happened before my switch away from Windows, but those tests went well. I’ll report on my further experiences later.
