Standby mode (apm -s) does not work properly,
because all fans are running.

What does standby mode do under windows?

I have a ThinkPad 600. I never use standby;
only suspend.

Dunno, but I think that standby means suspend under win ? - they offer standby and hibernate modes.

Doesn't matter, fans should stop in all cases.

Standby works fine for me on a Thinkpad T21. I never use suspend with Linux because I haven't take the time to investigate whether I need a separate suspend partition or not (W2K suspends to a file in the W2K file system).
