For what it's worth, I'm testing suspend-to-ram on Ubuntu 9.10 x86_64
with 2.6.32 final on a T500 and it's been pretty reliable -- I've
suspended by closing the lid at least a dozen times and it hasn't locked
up yet.

Things to check:

1. are you using DMAR (VT-d)? I'm not, and I had problems on another
machine (also Core 2 Duo with GM45 graphics) when I tried suspending
with CONFIG_DMAR=y.
2. are you running into http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14484
or a similar problem?
3. (if you have GMA graphics) Are you up to date on the xorg-video-intel
driver? I'm using KMS and xorg-video-intel 2.9.0. 2.8.x is missing
some relevant bugfixes. (Of course if you have ATI graphics then
this isn't relevant.)
