Absolutely true of course, that fixed it.

Notice, however, that I'm still getting (maybe unrelated issues) with
resume from ram. Just sometimes, the console gets flooded with
SectorIdNotFound error messages and the second I touch the disk, the
whole thing crashes (no more keyboard and console still going like
crazy). Alt-Sysrq doesn't work and i need to cold reboot (hold power for
n seconds).

This looks more like those bugs however:

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6840 (marked as closed)
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=475055 (also marked as
resolved)
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Problems_with_ACPI_suspend-to-ram (some
docs)

Maybe I should reopen that other issue... unless you guys tell me this
is related.

I think the issues here can be closed provided the right stuff (see
above) is put into Hal.

Thanks for the excellent followup(s),

A.
