Hi Greg,

I think you miss my point. I currently have a suspend/resume issue with 2.6.37 and 2.6.38-rc1
that is not related to our driver as I did suspend/resume without loading our driver module.

Yes, lots of other people reported problems with this, I thought you got
the reports (like from Jon Masters?)
