(Get the code!)
I have a 32 bit clean install of 8.10 rc1 that has updated itself to current with an ATI 9600 GPU running the stock open source driver.
Suspend/resume worked perfectly for me from day one with this machine until some recent updates. Now it suspends and resumes once per session. On the 2nd suspend attempt, I get a black screen with a blinking cursor near the upper left corner of the screen. There is no further response to keyboard or mouse. I Have to hit the reset button on the tower to reboot the machine.
If it's a clue, on the one successful suspend cycle per boot, the screen turns black with the cursor near the upper left corner for a few seconds. I then hear a faint "pop-pop" sound from the speakers, the cursor moves up 2 lines to the top left corner and then the machine goes into S3 sleep.
On the unsuccessful attempts, the cursor never moves up and there is no "pop-pop" sound.
Hibernate still works reliably, but I would prefer to use standby(suspend) on this machine.
