I needed to do this to cure IDE hangs on resume: ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.18-rc3/2.6.18-rc3-mm2/broken-out/ide-reprogram-disk-pio-timings-on-resume.patch Are you watching the suspend mailing lists? There's no shortage of them: suspend-devel: http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.suspend.devel linux-pm: http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.linux.power-management.general suspend2-devel: http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.linux.swsusp.devel suspend2-users: http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.linux.swsusp.general I'm currently trying to help out one Sheer El-Showk, whose piix ide requires 30 seconds of floundering followed by a bus reset to resume: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.suspend.devel/276/focus=347 But I know next-to-nothing about ATA. It's not surprising you're not getting many bug reports. It's common for several things to go wrong during s2ram, and the user often ends up looking at a hung system with a dead screen. It takes some quality time with netconsole to even begin to narrow down that it's IDE hanging the system, after which you can *begin* solving the no-video-on-resume issue.
