Both my girlfriend and I are running Linux on our 701C's, and
neither of us have any problems with hibernate mode; the only
thing that I can think of is that it might get confused if you're
not using loadlin. I was unable to get Linux to even run WITHOUT
loadlin, so I don't know what would happen if I didn't use it,
but I'd bet some things wouldn't initialize right if you went
straight into Linux. Give it a shot if you're not using it; it's
pretty easy to install.
