| I've got a laptop that currently has WinXP, Fedora 14, Ubuntu 9.10,
| Ubuntu 10.10.  The Ubuntu 10.10 is using GRUB2 and I'm not liking it.
| 
| The Ubuntu 9.10 can properly resume from a suspend.  Neither the
| Fedora 14 nor the Ubuntu 10.10 can do that.  It's a good thing that I
| saved the Ubuntu 9.10 -- it may be useful for debugging this.  I blew
| away Fedora Core 7 to install Fedora 14.

This laptop hangs during suspend because of code introduced in the
2.6.35 kernel.  It seems that this causes problems with only a few
notebooks.

It took me a considerable amount of time to find the correct bug
report.  Luckily the bug report includes a work around: add a kernel
parameter acpi_sleep=nonvs.  See
  <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16396>
I added comment #85.

Now to convince GRUB1 (Fedora 14) and GRUB2 (Ubuntu 10.10) to use
this parameter.
