Hello Daniel, I have the same laptop as you .. I share the issue concerning suspend to ram that reboots .. In // to the kernel tuned by Adam, I have compiled a vanilla 2.6.37 kernel & the suspend to ram works properly on my two distributions ( I have installed two linux on my vaio : ubuntu 10.10 64bits & debian squeeze 64bits) That means we can be confident for the future :-) The drawback is that I don't have all the paches applied by Adam in this kernel ..
