[suspend/resume failure on TP560 with Megahertz modem installed] > > problem manifests itself upon entering the suspended state, not > > when resuming. > > Ah, true. Hmm, let me think about this, OK? OK. :-) Here's something else to think about. Sometimes it looks as though the machine has started to suspend, but then gets yanked back to life. Once I watched it almost-suspend for maybe 10 seconds before hearing the disk spin up again all by itself. (I say "almost" suspend because I'm pretty sure the suspend light never came on.) What I'm getting at is this: The manual for the ThinkPad 560 says that an incoming call on the modem can wake up the machine when it is in the suspended state. I'm having problems only with the modem card, not with the ethernet card. Could it be that the card is emitting a spurious indication of an incoming call, due to some error in the way it's being shut down? Just something to think about.
