I've got an ASROCK K8NF6G-VSTA with an AMD Sempron 2600 (the version without amd64 extensions) and haven't encountered any problem so far with suspend or hibernate.
OTOH, I did take the precaution to upgrade to latest BIOS before tracking the bug, that is BIOS 1.60 One has to enable these options in the BIOS : Advanced>ACPI Configuration Suspend to RAM : AUTO Repost Video STR on Resume : Yes ACPI HPET Table : Enabled Everything works as it should. On resume from either suspend or hibernate, the login asking a password for the user connected when entering s/h is presented without having to touch mouse or keyboard. The fact user can chose its kernel after hibernate is the desired behavior. Provided you have different swap partitions, it allow you to hibernate one and go to work with another release/distribution/OS. I would be quite displeased if it wasn't the case, since there's no reason to force the user to boot whatever system he wants. One refinement could be to mask other kernels from the system that has been hibernated, but it's not even the best - if you only need one kernel, you'd have uninstalled the others, and if you need other kernels, you might have reasons to do so, and that mean sometimes you'd want to reboot on another kernel even if you used hibernate, even though you know you would lose some data in the process. The only problem I have with this main board is that Cool'n Quiet doesn't work, which is quite a pain (I'd like to lower power consumption).
