In /etc/default/acpi-support, there's an option to use S1 sleep ("standby") instead of S3 ("suspend to ram"). S3 was the culprit for me; S1 works fine.
What motherboard/chipset/etc. did you encounter the problem on? (The machine that gave me trouble is an IBM with two dual-core Opterons. I don't know any more specific info off the top of my head, and I don't have access from where I am now to that machine. I will check my motherboard/chipset/etc. tomorrow.) -- suspend corrupted my hard-disk (VERY BAD) https://launchpad.net/bugs/68490 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
