!Yes, this looks like an ata problem.  I forwarded it on to an ata
!person, and maybe he can help.

Thanks for the follow-up.

Another "clue" might be that ACPI Suspend/Resume
appears to work reliably on my wife's Toshiba
Satellite Pro 4600 running 6.1-R,
which claims to have the ICH2 ATA controller.

(Actually, the 4600 has its own odd little
resume problem (APM or ACPI),
which is unrelated to this show-stopper,
but that's a story for another thread).
