Ok, I humbly tried to do that with the patch at the end of the email,
but I did not appear to hang in this function tough.
Somehow I could get some messages printed when it was a black screen
before (I think it has to do with the debug level I set with SysRq...)
and I could see all the printks I've put there.
The good thing is that I could get the complete syslog of the boot until
the it failed after suspending to RAM (in 2.6.28-rc2 with my debug patch
below applied). The last messages before the laptop become unresponsive
(except for the SysRq) were these ones:

and I have the complete trace also. I can try to put it somewhere in the web if it helps
(I already tried it, but I am new at the institute here and I could not set up my
webpage yet :-(
This is the patch I applied, I don't know if this helps or not...
