*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 58935 *** I solved the problems by removing the cdrom driver before suspending, and having it reinserted afterwards. You do this by editing /etc/default/acpi-support to have the following:
# Note that network cards and USB controllers will automatically be unloaded # unless they're listed in MODULES_WHITELIST #MODULES="" MODULES="cdrom" Now suspend and hibernate work fine, and the processes don't become zombies.
