Few tips:
If you want to trick swsusp/S3 into working, you might want to try:
* go with minimal config, turn off drivers like USB you don't really
need
* use ext2. At least it has working fsck. [If something seemes to go
wrong, force fsck when you have a chance]
* turn off modules
* use vga text console, shut down X
* try running as few processes as possible, preferably go from single
use mode
When you make it work, try to find out what exactly was it that broke
suspend, and preferably fix that.

Hacking lowlevel sleep functions, maybe. Not sure about l-k status.

Tried it with minimal config. Base problem is, that after suspending,
I've no way to wake up the laptop again, but power cycling.
That means:
~ "mem": after power cycling it is doing a 'normal' reboot. (okay memory
contents is lost, so this is somewhat expected)
~ "disk": hey, after power cycling it indeed resumes to the previous
state. so I tried to compile in some more stuff. What breaks it is AGP
support :-(. Are there any patches around which may fix this?
Any idea, why the laptop is not powering on again after suspend? I can
hold down the power switch as long as I want to, but the laptop doesn't
do a thing.
Thanks,
Jan

Well, that's expected I believe. You use power button to wake it up...

Lets solve S3 later...

No, someone needs to do the work.

Seems like hardware bug? [So you have to remove battery/AC then
poweron?]

Exactly. Pretty annoying. In those days where Windows XP powered the
laptop, this worked, so I'm pretty sure it is no hardware bug. If I
press the power switch, the power & disk light goes on, but nothing happens.
Is there anything w/ acpi I can try?
