As confirmed elsewhere, "lazy unmount" gets this unmounted and lets you
suspend the laptop.
As far as the hangs themselves - first, I'd like to clarify something.
You say you mount the laptop by NFS to a local fileserver. I'm not clear
which direction you mean the mounting is done in.
That is:
Machine A has a NFS share defined.
Machine B runs an appropriate NFS mount command, and gains access to
files which are stored on machine A.
Is the laptop machine A, or machine B?
The former is what your phrasing ("I ... mount [the laptop] via NFS to a
local fileserver") leads me to expect, but the latter would be the more
common scenario.
Either way, I have an idea about what could be causing the hangs to
occur, but the exact scenario would be different depending on the answer
to that question.
