Fedora 7 is uncapable of suspending or hibernating.

Tue Jun 5 08:47:05 UTC 2007

My laptop computer, IBM T43, was installed with Fedora 7.
I found it can not suspend or hibernate.
The tutor of gnome-power-manager's HELP tells some solution.
but they did not act really.

I have tried, but there was no successful result.

when I logged with Root user, and execute:
----------------------------------------
[root at localhost ~]# gnome-power-manager --verbose --no-daemon
