0 is 'On'. It will not do anything.

Do you physically have to remove the devices or can you simply remove the 
modules?

Noted. This is a common problem that we're trying to get to the bottom of.

Interesting. That backtrace and the cause (whether it's an actual Oops, a 
BUG() or a WARN_ON()) is important. Is there anyway you could hook up a 
serial console to capture the output? 

Also, if you're willing, I would recommend trying 2.6.0-test5-mm2, which
will allow you to try the original swsusp code (via /proc/acpi/sleep)
independently of the more recent suspend-to-disk code (via 
/sys/power/state).

Thanks,
