s2ram works as expected over here,
s2disk resulted in a shutdown
(after looking at the documentation, seems
easier to just stick with s2ram).

Anyways the machine I have here is the macbook pro
with the ati chipset.
you on the other hand have the nvidia which acts differently
than having the radeon module and so forth.
you also have a different module than appletouch/synaptics
to deal with the touchpad i.g. bcm5974. In this case
I don't have any machines that have that hardware here.

My guess is hoping somebody who is reading this post, and has the hardware
add to this on why s2ram works, but s2disk fry's the mechanism for bcm5974
to wakeup from s2disk and be functional?
Also since the hardware is new try and update xserver/synaptic to make sure
that area is up-to-date(as well as making sure your xorg.conf is set right)

In the meantime I'll have to see if there is any info on doing s2ram
(simple version) somewhere to try, so I can see if this results with a
non working
touchpad. With the equipment I have here.
