I think you misunderstand, linux APM understands this perfectly.  But
to come out of a suspended state the CPU needs to be "woke-up"
differntly than a standard power up.  That is where my problems are.

Or do you mean an entirely linux solution - not using bios apm - where
the linux kernel writes its state out and then knows to restore it on
reboot?  That would be nice.
