Re: sleep: trackpad settings, screen blanking

I have a first generation tibook, running Linux 2.4.14, and I have
a few itches that need scratching:

1) The screen doesn't always get blanked when it gets put to sleep.
  Known problem?  Fix being worked on?  If yes, I'd still be curious
  to hear what the problem was, as I had a cursory look at the code,
  but didn't have time to do any rebooting/hacking.

Which kernel ? My rsync ? bk _2_4 ? _2_4_devel ? Linus ?

It's the "stable" kernel from the ftp site.

2) Trackpad settings aren't restored (or saved beforehand?) after
  sleep.  Same questions apply.

That's normal for now.

I see... is anyone working on it? "KOBAYASHI R. Taizo" sent me a patch
that he says does it...  I suppose I don't have the time in any case
(nor much knowledge).

Thanks,
