14 I've tried this on my laptop, and afterwards it wouldn't suspend to ram
15 when it was supposed to. I didn't do any real troubleshooting, so I'm
16 just mentioning it here in case it helps someone else recognize the
17 source of the problem. This was with sys-power/upower-0.9.16 and
18 dev-libs/libusbx-1.0.11 (I didn't try to rebuild upower after switching
19 from dev-libs/libusb-1.0.9 to dev-libs/libusbx-1.0.11).
