[lubuntu-users] Does the computer support "suspend"?

[Israel]

@Fritz,
sometimes a kernel parameter can help with this issue... but again with 
PPC you never know.... maybe someone else here knows for sure??
I have had a PPC that did suspend and wake, but not every release has 
worked for this... i am not sure if my Precise iBook (running precise 
that is, as the sound issue was not resolved in Xenial... and I don't 
have time to mess around with it much.)
