important is enough.

 There is a bug in the linux kernel 2.6.35, that makes suspend to ram
 unusable (it seems to be fixed in 2.6.36-rc2) [1]. The symptoms are:
 - Suspend to ram from X hangs the computer, the only option is to press
   the power button for ~5 sec and thus forcefully turning off the  
   computer (SysRq does not work for me). After a while (when not
   turning off the computer of cause) the fan goes to full power.
 - However, suspend to ram from console works.
 - The hang does happen every time on my laptop. However,  on some
   computers that seems to happen only sporadically.

experienced similar stuff here on a X201 Thinkpad.
 
 The link [1] contains two possible solutions for this problem.
 1. Turn off BSD completely by replacing the corresponding define
in i915_drv.h with
 #define HAS_BSD(dev)(0)
 2. 2.6.36-rc2 seems to fix the problem (according to a comment on [1]).

ok marking as forwarded.

once a specific patch emerges out of that report, we can add it,
otherwise it should go through stable.
