One solution I found could be: In the file /usr/lib/acpid/thinkpad_handler add the lines: if [ "$WHAT" = "00000080" -a "$SERIAL" = "0000100c" ]; then /usr/sbin/pm-hibernate fi
I have exactly the same Suse 11.2/Gnome from live CD install and the same symptoms described above. Added the lines as in Nagel's suggestion and it works fine! Machine: Thinkpad T42, 14'', P-M 1.7 GHz, Radeon M10 / 9600.
Hello, still have same problems with 11.3 MS 7 and Thinkpad X200t here. I added the suggested lines to "thinkpad_handler", that works, but seems to be more like a workaround. Up to OS 11.1 i could configure the suspend-actions of FN+F4 an FN+F12 via the graphical menu of kpowersave and could add options like "Lock screen on resume" for example. A tweaking of thinkpad_handler was not necessary. It seems to me, that something different was broken between 11.1 and 11.2. Unfortunately, i don't really know how to find out what. Any clues ? Regards.
