In the Volume Control panel, make sure Master, PCM, Front, Surround,
LFE, are all set to max.  I had to add the last three by editing
preferences.

I doubt you did something wrong.  As far as I can tell Hardy is the
first release where suspend actually works with laptops, or at least,
its the first one that's worked on the M1530.

I'm on Hardy now, but its kind of flaky, especially Firefox 3 Beta.  I
feel like I've been devolved to an AOL user... copy&paste the URL into
the browser rather than being able to double click on it.  Very, very,
time consuming.

In Skype / Options / Video, there is a test box in the upper right
corner of the dialog.  Have you tried that?  The webcam should be set to
"Laptop Integrated Webcam (/dev/video0), and the Enable Skype Video
should be set.
