Hi all,

Just tried Acelan's kernel in my 1225B (latest BIOS 0207) without any fix or scripts in /etc/pm, here is the test results:

- first boot and login to desktop, then issue suspend (by Fn-1 Key, or Suspend at top menu), the laptop will try to suspend but wake up immediately, I can see the LCD backlight turn off and on quickly. Fortunately the system does not hang, and i can login back to the desktop from locked screen.

- then I try to issue suspend again after the 1st try, it works successfully. Further tries include Fn-1 Key, Suspend at top menu, and "sudo pm-suspend" works perfectly and resume as expected.

- then I try to close the lid, the display backlight has been turn off, but the system does not go to sleep. When i open the lid again, i can see a black screen with backlight on, click any key will show the desktop again. Try to mess with BIOS's LID settings or acpitool -W 16 still not work.

overall, this is the best experience with this eeepc laptop so far although it is still not perfect yet, thanks for this fixed kernel and looking for further updates. :)
