Well, unfortunately I'm not an IDE expert, so I personally probably won't
be working on it. Still I am going to do something about the suspend-related
driver problems in general, so time will tell.

I _guess_ the Ubuntu kernel is "customized" so that it doesn't work with s2ram,
because vanilla kernel.org kernels should work with it.
OTOH some people reported that Ubuntu kernels successfully suspended (and
resumed) machines which the kernel.org kernels failed to suspend (or resume)
so it looks like Ubuntu has fixed some suspend-related driver problems. It's
a pity they haven't posted their fixes for merging, though.
Greetings,
Rafael
