Can anyone point me to a working set of acpi scripts that would enable suspend-to-RAM and other useful things (dimming the screen when switvching to battery power, etc) for a Dell Laptop (Latitude D600) on FC2 T3? I found several scripts on the net, but they mostly are for patched 2.4 kernel, and do not work for me.
Also: why don't we include some decent set of such scripts by default? I know that ACPI can be tricky, and varies from one laptop to another - but some things work rather reliably (such as blanking screen on lid close), and others (suspend) could be included commented out.
Sasha
at least, we could include some commented out scripts

Checkout this page. It dont know if these scripts will work on your machine, but I think they can set you to the right direction. Hope they help ;)
