16 hee hee, absolutely. You should have found _something_ on the list - I
17 posted quite a lot about it not long ago.

19 Basically, its related somehow to SMP kernels (I presume you have a
20 hyperthreaded P4?) If so, there are patches available, which I still
21 have on my machine if you want them, (or I can dig out the various
22 bugzilla references)...
23
24 But by far the easiest way to get around it is to use 2.6.15. This may
25 cause other problems for you, but you may be interested in hearing that
26 I've got suspend2 working well with 2.6.15 (since I noticed you're
27 trying to use the suspend2 patchset). I patched vanilla-2.6.15 with
28 suspend2-2.2-rc16-for-2.6.15.
29
30 I just looked at your .config - it looks like it is as I suspected. So
31 try 2.6.15, but if you can't, let me know...
