Hi all ! I did some more tests this week. I have still difficulties to identify the modules preventing the system from resuming properly. One of them is certainly sungem, but even if my list of blacklisted modules is quite long (appletouch, ohci_hcd, ehci_hcd, sungem, usbhid, hid), and even if I try to add some other modules to this list, I still relatively often find myself locked out the system after the system reloaded the image from swap. Since I see no message neither on console (I see just the message "Suspending console(s)"), nor in the logs, I do not have an idea of what is really happening. Forcing however removing ALL modules before suspend has never failed (up to now).
I tried Johannes' patches from 2007-04-05 on 2.6.21-rc5. Hunk 14 on via-pmu.c from patch 048-move-pmops-to-generic.patch failed, and I had to apply it by hand. I got s2both running correctly. However s2disk did not work anymore : the image would be written to swap, but then instead of shutting down, the computer enters in a 'suspend-2-ram' mode : the screen is off, the disk is stopped, and the led is blinking as in s2ram. Pressing a key seems to wake the computer and then shut it down. But pressing the power button has no action : I have to press for several second to hear the computer halt completely. Pressing again power starts up the system, which reloads correctly the image from swap.
