i did so. I downloaded 2.6.28.10 sources, patched it to get basic 
support for Voipac module and add some my platform devices.

u-boot-2009.11.1 haven't Voipac or Toradex Colibri support.

May be....but then i need to rewrite some of hardware drivers as drivers 
api for some kind of devices has changed since 2.6.28.
When i run 2.6.24 kernel on Toradex Colibri module i haven't such 
troubles so i hope that 2.6.28 can work with sleep mode.

No, it doesn't. I unloaded it but all the same - kernel hangs
