Bug#591073: linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64: Suspend-to-RAM regression -- Possible solution



An update to this report which might help with the solution: While the old 
system based on Kernel package version 2.6.32-3 worked, I've experienced 
graphics slowdowns after resume. Just today I've come across #587722 which 
seems to be related. It hints at installing firmware-linux. Its dependency 
linux-firmware-free was already installed, but firmware-linux-nonfree was not 
yet present.

When I installed it, I've experienced the same issue as Pietro, the submitter 
of #587722, namely that Kernel 2.6.32-3 doesn't resume at all anymore. 
However, with the newer kernel packages and in particular 2.6.35-trunk the 
resume works flawlessly now after several tries, and on top of it it also fixes 
the slowdown issue after resume.

Therefore, in summary, Kernel 2.6.35 + firmware-linux-nonfree is the best 
combination for my system. Now I guess the next step is to find out if the non-
free part is really needed. If my observations are correct, it might make 
sense to retitle the report accordingly.

I will also add a note to #587722.
