Ive had (and actually still have) a similar issue on my i386 laptop. When I
leave the pcmcia network card in its slot while in suspend mode, the computer
hangs when resuming. It continues normally when I remove the pcmcia card.
The problem is gone when I disable the network (`/etc/rc.d/network stop')
before suspending (I put this in /etc/apm/* scripts.)
Dont know if this has anything todo with it... or should I mention/report this
problem somewhere else?
Any ideas/fixes would be appreciated...
