I'm also willing to do testing. My home directory is mounted on a separate disk, which I can umount for testing purposes. I'm willing (even eager) to trash the root filesystem as many times as necessary to get suspend/resume working. I can live without suspend, but it's nice to have. I got used to it in OS X on my iBook and in Vista, on the very laptop where it's broken in Ubuntu.

What Paul wrote above is spot-on. This is a very serious bug. If you accidentally click the wrong button when trying to power down or log out, you'll lose all your data. I'm sure that would be a show-stopper for almost anyone.
