I've loaded up my brand new HP Pavilion dv5 (dv5t-1100, to be precise) with 
2008.11.  And suspend/resume isn't working as expected.  Thought I'd be able to 
at least make an effort, but everything I've tried has hit a dead end so far.
<br/>
<p>
After reading the 2008.11 suspend/resume FAQ, ensuring that suspend/resume was 
activated, and failing to suspend, I turned to <a 
href=http://blogs.sun.com/randyf/entry/testing_suspend_and_resume_for>this</a> 
blog entry to try and debug it.
<br/>
<p>
The problem I'm having is that any attempt to test Suspend-to-RAM for 
<i>any</i>  driver module using this command:

<p>
<pre>
uadmin 3 25 <b><i>driver-module-id</i></b>
</pre>

<p>
Ends up garbling the screen and hanging the system.  Even loading kmdb with the 
-k option to the kernel doesn't seem to help me to break into the system by 
pressing F1-A or Ctrl-Pause, once the hang has occurred.  And laptops don't 
have serial console access nowadays...
<p>
So what approaches can I take to:

<ul>
<li>Determine which devices in the tree to <i>start</i> Suspend-to-RAM testing 
on?  So I can work my way up the device tree to find the real culprit.
<li>Have some kind of debugging capability when I end up suspending the 
"suspect" devices?
</ul>

<p>
Would providing the output of prtconf -vD help in this case?
<p>
Thanks for any advice.
