I can confirm that the latest kernel release does suspend properly on the Portege M500.

However, I checked out the changes made to the code after gusnz's comment about the M3.
The patches had been refactored and some models were missed. These are the M3, M7 and variation on the U200. The variation on the U200 should go upstream.

The original patch had some OEM string checking because *some* M3 seem to not have a Product Name in the dmidecode output (see http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=11993&action=edit).

That has been omitted in the patches applied to the Gutsy kernel. I have not added that
back in in this patch.

However, apparently there is a patch awaiting which adds the Tecra M3 to the
piix_broken_suspend_dmi_table table, as well. This patch includes that.

I have built the packages and am waiting confirmation from guznz for the M3.

Packages are available for testing at http://203.143.225.228/gutsy/
