------- Comment #6 from [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2008-11-09 13:04 -------
Turns out the second-resume-failure only happens when the "Intel TXT Feature"
is enabled in the BIOS.  If I disable that setting, the kernel can suspend and
resume many (more than 3) times.

For anyone else that might be having this problem, try going into the BIOS,
into "Security", into "Security Chip", and set "Intel(TM) TXT Feature" to
disabled.

Unfortunately, I don't understand what the BIOS is doing with Intel's TXT
hardware to cause this problem.  Perhaps it expects kernel to properly enable
the TPM chip?  Or the kernel is supposed to install some special trusted S3
resume handler?  I don't know why it only affects the second resume.

Moreover, I don't know whether this failure mode is specific to this BIOS or to
TXT support in general.  However, I'll attach my dmidecode and acpidump output,
both with TXT enabled and disabled, just in case.

(As for this bug report, it would be nice if the kernel at least logged a
warning saying things might break..)
