Hate to hear this - 2.0 is said to work _flawlessly_ on 2.4.24 and on 2.6.2 within the bounds of more complex PM/driver issues. 2.4.25 and 2.6.3 patches are undergoing testing. If you like to try again, please have a look at http://swsusp.sf.net. There is also comprehensive FAQ and Howto on the site. You also will find a lot of user support wrt specific HW. Myself is running 2.0 on 2.4.2[345] without any stability issues whatsoever this year. In short, I am confident we can make it work for you! Regards Michael
