[ACPI-sppt] acpi s3 resume 2.6.0-test2

hi all,

I have an acer 630, which has an ALI 1533 ACPI controller.
After patching my dsdt and compiling it using the iasl, I patched the 
kernel using your patch and included my dsdt.hex as described.

after that I had to turn off smp support, which is no problem on a 
single cpu machine, but otherwise echoing 3 into /proc/acpi/sleep 
resulted in a dedlock inside the kernel/suspend.c task stopping 
function. (but don't know where exactly)

Now to my current problem: (perhaps anybody has a problem like mine)
echo 3 > /proc/acpi/sleep works fine, the notebooks turns off and the 
"Zz" led is blinking. After turning on the power again the screen 
remains black and even the magic sysreq keys don't do anything. So I 
guess it is a rather early staged system freeze.

Could there be a remaining bug in the dsdt table? is there a good 
literature for "understanding" what the dsdt does?
Has anybody a related problem, or has solved an issue like that?

Any pointers are appreciated.
Oh and please CC the answers to my mail address - I am currently not 
subscribed.

Thanks a lot.

-- Jakob
