What's likely is that you're hitting several problems at once:
1) display reinit: if acpi_sleep=s3_{bios,mode} at boot doesn't help, I
   don't know what does,
2) keyboard / mouse (touchpad) dead: apply the patches found here [1]
   against a vanilla 2.6.0, should fix it once and for all,
3) uhci-hcd's appalling PM / suspend / resume support -- a workaround is to
   unload all USB drivers prior to suspend.

Judging by the fact that you have something written in syslog after resume,
it seems you're not so far from having S3 working, the video adapter being
the most important issue.

Best regards, hope that helps you.
