When OEM role a custom Ubuntu release for new hardware they will be able to include the new hardware on the white list. And all 'Ubuntu Certified' hardware (where it is testing and know to work) will also be included, so I think we are good here for now. It would also be great to have a community hardware certification process in the future.

Also, we can add a button or a informative text when suspend/hibernate doesnt work to guide the users about what to do.
