One thing that surprised me the most is that one application can cause suspend failure where as the other can show suspend success. I had forgotten to mention that swsusp works perfect for me when using kpowersave to do the suspend/resume. But surprisingly when I use klaptopdaemon (which currently is the default application in KDE for software suspend), my laptop will not suspend at all. This is all that was logged into syslog when the suspend failure occurred using klaptopdaemon May 11 18:47:04 learner -- MARK -- May 11 19:06:44 learner kernel: Disabling non-boot CPUs ...

Looking into /var/log/ revealed that powermanager does a lot of additional work to make sure that the OS suspends properly. Thanks, Ritesh -- If possible, Please CC me when replying.
