Not having used pm-suspend for a while, I tried it, and it went down fine, but did not wake up properly. (I guess, you could say in a coma?:-) but it came back with a black screen and a dash blinking cursor.) Had to hard-shutdown a la Windoze (I am told). But my reference is to pm-hibernate. I tried it three times this morning, and it went down fine twice. But woke up a second later the third time. I tried shutting down firefox the first times, and left it on at www.washingtonpost.com the third time. It may be firefox, it may be java, but the problem is so random (Bernoulli distributed with p > 0.75) that it is hard to tell.
