I seem to have the same problem. Suspend to ram and resume work like a charm, but the touch pad dies. External mouse works fine.

I get the following error in dmesg:
[ 1.537853] i8042 kbd 00:07: activation failed
[ 1.537880] i8042 aux 00:08: activation failed

I tried several suggestions in this thread:
* restarting x-server does not help
* adding MODULES="psmouse" to /etc/default/acpi-support does not help
* uncommenting DOUBLE_CONSOLE_SWITCH=true does not help

I also tried to use the script by Tavis Hampton, but I am not sure if I did it right. I put his script in /etc/acpi/suspend2ram.sh and made it executable. Then I edited /etc/acpi/events/lidbtn as follows:
event=button[ /]lid
#action=/etc/acpi/lid.sh
action=/etc/acpi/suspend2ram.sh

The result was that the system crashed on resume, although there was a lot of disk activity for over a minute.
