Sounds like an acpi bug in the bios, or kernel toward your bios - see if
there's an update for it. Anytime I've had suspend issues, it's almost
always a bios thing, particularly in Dell, or or kernel folks begrudgingly
write an exception to deal with popular, crappy hardware.
This issue single-handed holds back linux in general on laptop hardware as
every laptop is different, where the vendors usually write crappy windoze
code and drivers to work around their poor, non-standard bios'.
If you're using grub/legacy bios, might try EFI if it supports it. Not
sure how much will follow through and plague you, but might prove better,
or at least more standard these days. Dell is at least one that actually
*does* consider linux vs. the lenovo, toshiba, and hp's that still pretend
no one uses linux desktops.
