Bug Description
Binary package hint: acpid
I'm running the current Hardy on a laptop, and I noticed upon a data corruption issue that suspend/hibernate does not syncs nor umounts external disks.
This may cause file-system corruption.
I attach a small patch that syncs as the last step of preparation for suspend/hibernate.

Thanks for your bug submission. Sorry for your loss. This sounds serious. Marking as Confirmed.
What version of Hardy and what make/model of laptop?
What does the following say when this happened?
dmesg | tail -100
or perhaps
tail -100 /var/log/syslog
