I wrote in my last comment of this bug that in *most* of the cases
the 
	echo "mem" > /sys/power/state
works perfectly, and I'm using it permanently now.

The problem seems to be in combination with some pm-utils scripts.
I still haven't been able to pin-point the actual pm-utils script that
causes the problem, since that is something not 100% reproducible.

Futhermore, *once* (only once!) the echo mem > method failed as written in
the bug report with :
[16273.....] PM: resume of devices complete after 2115.046 msecs
[16273.....] Restarting tasks ... done
[16273.....] video LNXVIDEO:00: Restoring backlight state
hanging here, but only once, not any time again.

It is hard to say what the culprit is, some new pm-utils script maybe,
since it happens even when I switch pm-utils to use the kernel method
(echo mem) to suspend, and not uswsusp (s2ram prog).

I would suggest keeping that bug closed until I have found the pm-utils
or a specific culprit, then I can reopen it or open a new bug.

(more disturbing are iwlagn bugs, they are a PITA without any progress)

Best wishes

Norbert
