Well, it seems that the SMP kernel has a bug that does not let the computer
go to sleep. It is strange since SMP needs ACPI to work.
I installed the plain kernel from FC3, same version as SMP kernel, but the
one without SMP and the computer recognizes the command echo mem >
/sys/power/state and goes to sleep.
Unfortunately, my processor has hyper-threading so without SMP in the kernel
I loose all those capabilities. Where do I report this problem with the
SMP-kernel?
Thanks,
