In my case the video (integrated Intel 915GM graphic chipset) never
resumes correctly. However, I've noticed very similar issues with the
disk. Sometimes the hdd led is always on after resume, sometimes not.
With the old SATA/IDE driver the disk seems to perform some operations
but at the end the system crashes totally and even the caps lock doesn't
work.

As an open-source developer I know from autopsy how much such e-mail are
frustrating to the developers. However it's impossible to me to prepare
a valuable bug report on bugzilla - at the moment I see no way to
reenable the LCD after resume (no acpi_sleep flag works on this system)
and the system crashes every time eliminating remote access to a
console.

Thanks,
