It depends what your problem is...
There have been some changes in recent upstream kernels regarding
suspend/wake-up code. If I understood everything correctly, the wake-up
code of radeonfb/atyfb video drivers was broken in -rc3, and the kernel
saw machines using then as "may sleep" and not "will sleep". BenH
patches on those video drivers were included in -rc4, so everything
should be back to normal. I haven't tested anything yet though.

One thing that isn't at all clear to me right now is: are upstream
kernels now able to put an albook to sleep ?

Thanks BenH for all your hard work anyway :-)
