https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156445 - particularly the |

comment dated 2007-09-14 20:58:00 UTC. |

| 22 |
and google gets others as well. There are a number of guides describing |
| 23 |
the patching and related problems ... note that the above is 2007 ... |
| 24 |
and it still doesnt work. |

|
| 26 |
Basicly the question is does genkernel support some of the more complex |
| 27 |
setups, but as having suspend/resume on a laptop is almost mandatory its |
| 28 |
something genkernel should support out of the box. For my uses, if it |
| 29 |
has to be patched to add such basic support ... its broke. |
