Details

Unlike pm-utils 1.2, pm-utils 1.3 and higher no longer query HAL for video quirks -- since HAL's days are numbered, the pm-utils project has taken over maintaining the video quirks database. pm-utils will crash machines that require video quirks on resume if the quirks database is not included.

You can grab the latest quirks database at http://pm-utils.freedesktop.org/releases/pm-quirks-20100316.tar.gz, or clone the video-quirks branch of the pm-utils git repository.

Disclamer: I am the upstream maintainer of pm-utils.
This task depends upon

I would suggest packaging these as standalone package and adding it as dependency to pm-utils. We handle hal-info in the same way.

I am no longer maintaining pm-utils (it's orphaned at the moment), but I'll put a call out on the ML for takers.

I'll adopt pm-utils then.
