NOTES:
(1) Suspend to RAM works only with BIOS version 1.10. Later versions have something wrong and this feature will not work properly. You can downgrade to v1.10 if your laptop does NOT mount an Intel Core Duo (Yonah) D0 stepping processor (which basically means those CPUs coded T2x00). Check here for more detailed information.
(2) Sort of. I can still see the cursor moving when I type, sometimes. But it's usable. And since xorg.conf is no longer used, it's a tough task to use this trick, unless you want to make a new (optional) xorg.conf, which can be a headache.
