acpi and 2.6.0 kernel - S3 doesn't resume, S4 = infinite loop

[Nirmal Govind <nirmalg-8DAjSxpRXgY@public.gmane.org>]

Hi.. I just compiled the 2.6.0 kernel that was released on Dec. 
18th... I have ACPI support with all the options enabled. I tried 
suspending with S3 and it suspends fine (my power indicator starts 
flashing which means that it has suspended). But when I hit the 
power button, it does not resume properly, it tries to resume, the 
power indicator stops flashing which means that it thinks it's woken 
up, but all I see is a blank screen and hitting any of the keys 
doesn't seem to do anything. Only thing that works is a hard reboot. 
I'm running Mandrake 9.2 on a Fujitsu Lifebook S series (6120D) with 
an Intel 855 chipset graphics adapter. Please let me know if there's 
a way to get S3 to work well.

Also, I tried suspend with S4 and that suspended fine but when I 
tried to resume, it booted up, showed me the resume messages saying 
it was resuming, then reboots! And this keeps happening at each 
reboot -- an infinite loop basically. I finally had to boot without 
the resume= option to get it to boot properly. Is this a bug?

Thanks,
nirmal
