For me, I have the proprietary NVIDIA drivers, and everything is
running on LVM, but I have the same problem. I've added "resume" to my
mkinitcpio, and to my parameters for grub.

The problem for me is that when I go to suspend, it doesn't even
suspend, it just closes everything, switches to a black/blank screen
with the blinking symbol _ , and stays there.  It doesn't fully shut
down. Then I have to manually restart the computer.

I also have pm-utils installed.
