So I have one remaining problem on my nasty EeePC problem child computer, and this one I cannot bisect simply because it's so flaky. The exact same kernel may suspend and resume many many times in a row, and then I reboot it, and it hangs on the first suspend. Very occasionally the machine comes back when I press a key, and resumes ok. Most of the time it does not - it's just dead to the world, and there are no logs to go by. I even tried pm_trace, and that didn't get me anywhere, although I once got a hash match: hash matches drivers/base/power/main.c:555 which is the last part of a deivice_resume(), but none of the devices matched, so that didn't really give any information at all. So I have very little to go on. However, at least one time when it failed and came back (remember: very rare), I did get that suspend sequence printouts logged. Here's a _good_ suspend: ...
