Learning Ubuntu #7 - Suspend is Working, Upgrading to OO 3.1, Getting CIFS working

1. Have a look at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/336158. I cut, modified slightly, and pasted the following into the specified file. All is well. Suspend is now working.
   
<match key="system.hardware.product" contains_outof="L300">
<merge key="power_management.quirk.vbe_post" type="bool">true</merge>
<merge key="power_management.quirk.s3_bios" type="bool">false</merge>
</match>
