Just wondering...what exactly do headings in this table mean?
- Blank = `Ability to turn off the LCD'
- Sleep = `Ability to (under at least some circumstances, or, `in theory' perform a SUSPEND-TO-RAM)'
- Hibernate = `Ability to perform a SUSPEND-TO-DISK via the Phoenix NoteBIOS'
- Battery = `Ability to get statistics on remaining battery life'
If these are correct, I'd be interested in knowing how hibernation (as described) works under ACPI.

Hei,
i just added explanations of how it is meant to the page. Do you want to know how to make it work under ACPI? Or under APM using the BIOS internal hibernation support? AFAIK in the T4x series models everything works both ways.
