I'll take your word for it. I've never seen such a combination. I give
suspend a try on my Gigabyte/AMD sid machine now and then, but it seems
to work for no more than two weeks in any year. Currently it is
leaving orphaned inodes, so I'm not experimenting too much.
Years ago, I used to spend time fixing it, but after a while I realised
it would only break again a month later, so I've stopped bothering.
I've yet to see a laptop/netbook screen backlight come on again after
suspend...
