Start with 3.0.3 and then go down - one kernel per release (not all those stable releases in between) should be enough. Then, as soon as it starts working again, you can narrow it down. Use vanilla kernels for this. Second, enable wake on lan - if your machine hangs while suspending, try to kick it back to life with a wol-packet. Third point, there are some checks and self tests among the kernel debug options related to suspending, enable them. For me, 3.0.1 is the first kernel ever that made it possible for me to suspend-to-ram (with fglrx even). Suspending is a bitch, breaking and unbreaking on an irregular basis thanks to crappy bios'. -- #163933
