X60: Maintian USB Power on Suspend in Ubuntu 10.10?

#1 Post by ThinkiPad » Fri Mar 25, 2011 9:21 pm

I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my ThinkPad X60. Everything I need seems to be working well except for the fact that USB loses power when I put the computer to sleep.

On Windows 7, I can put the computer to sleep and I still get power from all 3 USB ports.

Is there a way to enable USB power in standby on Ubuntu 10.10?

You need a BIOS option for 'Always on USB' for this to work. I don't believe the X60 series has this.
