I continued to investigate this and when looking for ACPI tools in order to get some more info, I found a package called hibernate, which I installed. After that I am now able to successfully suspend (to RAM) and resume on my nc8230!
hibernate is part of universe, so I guess most people have no problems using it. (I restored /etc/default/acpi-support to the default - not that I know if it matters, now that hibernate seems to handle suspend/resume.) Another work around that used to work fine for me, was to use the old "Dapper" kernel 2.6.15, but other posts indicate that this may not work on all machines. -- Intel 9XX Chipsets fail to suspend https://launchpad.net/bugs/67710 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
