I'd like to confirm the above observation. With GNOME the user has to
hold down ALT to get the suspend option to appear on shutdown menu (IMHO
this is really poor design). When the ALT key releases it wakes the
computer before it has even really shut down. It is very timing
sensitive. You have to release the ALT key the instant you click the
button for the computer to actually suspend.

It's a simple fix: just make suspend option appear all the time in a
separate button. Why would you want to hide capability from users?

Now, I've seen the computer be unable to suspend for other reasons
(maybe 20% of the time). It seems to be something to do with a process
that refuses to cooperate.
