Resume from suspend (to RAM) doesn't work (powers off instead on resume, didn't touch the power button) for Acer Timeline 3810t (and friends).

Core 2 Solo (or Duo, both have this problem) ULV, Mobile Intel® GS45 Express Chipset, Intel Wifi 5100.

I have tried 9.04, 9.10 alpha 2 and 3, kernels 2.6.28 to 2.6.31, all 32-bit. BIOSes 1.04 and 1.08 (latest). Nothing works.

There is a single isolated report of suspend working with 64-bit 2.6.30.

Suspend seems to work perfectly, but when a key is pressed to start resuming, the machine seems to start back up, but automatically powers off afer a few seconds (screen didn't come back up).

Using the "resume-trace" procedure described here does not yield any matches. Unloading all non-essential modules in single user mode doesn't fix it (used /etc/acpi/sleep.sh to initiate suspend).

Suspend is initiated through gnome-power-manager, but I don't think that's the problem.

What else can I try?

Thanks!
