Same exact behavior with the Asus P4P800-E Deluxe motherboard:  First
suspend and first resume work as expected.  Second suspend causes hard
disks to spin down and display to go blank, but does not shut down fans
or CPU ... computer non-responsive except for hard reboot (even
Alt+SysRq+REISUB does nothing).

This is with Maverick (Ubuntu 10.10) and kernel 2.6.35-22-generic
#35-Ubuntu SMP.

I also tried today's mainline kernel 2.6.37-020637rc2-generic
#201011160905 SMP but got the same result.

Unmounting the drive on the RAID controller in linux (umount /dev/sdc1)
has no effect.

This bug occurs whether the Promise RAID controller is set to IDE or
RAID mode.

The only way I was able to get multiple suspend/resume cycles to work
was by disabling the Promise RAID controller in "Onboard Devices" menu.
On my motherboard, there are two RAID SATA ports driven by the Promise
FastTrak controller, and two SATA ports driven by the Intel ICH5R
bridge.  Since I only need two hard drives, and I don't mind running
them in IDE (i.e. not RAID) mode, I connected both to the Intel ICH5R
ports, and disabled the RAID controller in BIOS.  Under this
configuration, suspend to ram (S3) and resume work through many cycles.

IMHO:  This bug should not be expired -- there is plenty of logs and
I've now tested it against the mainline kernel.  Maybe the devs have no
idea how to fix it, but that's no excuse!
