Hi Nate,

what about those pour souls that can't even suspend? Is there any update
on the Dell-Laptops-reboot-on-split-writes-to-register-PMA1_Control? [1]

Perhaps adding some beeps into the suspend path could move more people
into actually testing this. I think most people are afraid adding such
things themselves.

Which is worse: ignorance or apathy?
Don't know. Don't care.
