There are bugs in suspend in general with Linux (having nothing to do with
X per' se'). Keith Packard has sent Linus a patch; not a great one,
(loop after a pause for a long time), but one that works.
Basically, if the system is busy at the instant that the
suspend request is made, it fails. This can happen if the disk or
other device is busy at that instant, which can happen as the X server
writes its log that it is suspending (or other logging activity).
This will depend on exactly the hardware/software combination, and may
or may not be repeatable (until you change something!).
Keith, any news on that patch from Linus?
