[Bug 40800] Re: HAL blocks suspend

[Jeff Fortin]

Hi. I found this bug report while coming from
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=356441 and it seems most
likely that my problem is the same as described here, because I have
that Philips SCB5265SE distributed on an Acer Travelmate 2428 notebook.
I *guess* the firmware is TX11-C, that's what's written on the drive.

Anyhow, what I would like to say is:
- acer provides no firmware
- philips provides no firmware

I have no way of changing the firmware. Now, this is not such a big
issue because I practically never use optical drives, so I just took out
the drive (I will see if that fixes the problem). HOWEVER, I would think
this would be important to be fixed in software, not just assuming that
everyone should upgrade their firmware... Unless I am 100% confident the
dell firmware would work on an acer one. Hmm :|
