Hi Jake,

I have an IBM R40 and got ACPI (sort of) running by doing the following:

I got suspend/resume (with X running) working with ACPI by disabling glx 
in /etc/XF86Config and setting the following sysctl variables:

hw.acpi.sleep_button_state=S3
hw.acpi.lid_switch_state=S3

However, after suspending and resuming, the ethernetcard hangs after 
transmitting several hundred kBs. Suspending/resuming resets the 
interface and makes it work again, however for the same short period of 
time as after the first suspend/resume.

Regards,
Marc.
