There have been apparent and welcome improvements, but yes, there still 
are problems.
Changed to kernel 2.6.30-10 today, so I will add an update in about a 
week on how things are going with a real workload on that kernel.

The procedure to provoke a freeze in either suspend or resume from
suspend:

1) Use the machine with an external monitor (I normally use
    SubSection "Display"
        Virtual    3840 1200
    EndSubSection
    in xorg.conf, but it does not seem to matter what is in there for 
this bug)

2) Suspend the machine and take it out of the docking station (Optional: 
go home after work ;-).)

3) Resume the machine as a standalone laptop. Change the display to 1920 
1200.

4) Suspend the machine. (Optional: go back to work the next morning.)

5) Resume the machine in the docking station. Change the display to 3840 
1200.

6) Repeat steps 2-5 a small number of times.

The number of repeats used to be less than 1, ie. the first resume or 
the second suspend in the docking station normally failed, or even the 
first resume at home. Now the number of successful repeats is typically 
something like 5, which means normally one week at a time without any 
trouble (at least after I changed the GdmXserverTimeout to 20).

Do I have the last version:

Thanks for all the good work!  To get from an unbearable situation to a 
reasonably good situation is fine, anything more will be a bonus.
