[ale] Suspend on the Dell Inspiron 8200

[Chris Farris]

What Video card do you have? I have an 8100 w/ the NVida card and when I
loaded the kernel module it would capture and ignore apm requests. Thank
god for SRC! I commented out the catch reloaded the module and apm works
fine for me.

I always suspend by running "apm -s" as root from a prompt.
