What graphics adapter do you have?

According to
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=488144
and
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16453

quirks for Intel graphics cards are still needed. For the other cases, 
pm-utils will filter out any quirks, so no changes to the fdi files are 
necessary (see /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/98smart-kernel-video)

Cheers,
Michael
