That's a GREAT one. I digged the net for days, and this is the first solution that makes sense!
Thank a lot!

This didn't work for me on Fedora 8. I found that the only thing I could do was revert back to JRE 1.5 as per:

Running Gentoo, after upgrading from 2.6.17 to 2.6.22.
In addition to your changes, I also had to make the following changes to ipg.h:
add
#include
remove
#include

Patrick: Suspend / resume finally working Acer Ferrari 4005WLMi

Thanks for the information! It made me think why my 4005WLMi and newer 6465WLMi would not resume from suspend. I figured it out on the 6465 and is actually quite simple: disable all modules that you do not need by adding them to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist with "blacklist module_name". Add the ones that still insist on loading at boot to /etc/modprobe.conf with "alias module_name off". Even with the proprietary ATI driver suspend/resume now works like a charm. Hope this helps others that may encounter this problem.

Using no kernel parameters on x86_64 FC6 - just "kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.20-1.2933.fc6 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet"

And standard pm-utils-0.19-3.x86_64 rpm

I've found the recent kernels best without the all the other params that are discussed elsewhere on the net (noapic irqpoll acpi_irq_balance etc.) see http://blog.co-comp.co.uk/archives/2-Kernel-Parameters-after-FC4-to-FC5-upgrade-via-yum-on-an-Acer-Ferrari-4005WLMi.html for more detail

Congratulations! I never succeeded in getting my Acer Ferrari 4005WLMi to resume properly with FC6. Can you please provide more details what you actually did to make it work? Which parameters did you boot the kernel with? Did you have to make any changes in the files located in /etc/pm/? Which BIOS version are you using? Anything else?

Just to confirm, suspend / resume works on the next kernel too (2.6.20-1.2925.fc6)
