I've seen issues with some drivers on my Linux boxes (ATI in particular) 
that cause problems with suspend-to-RAM and suspend-to-disc.  It wouldn't 
surprise me if these issues (as the drivers are closed-source on Linux 
and likely include stuff from the Windows drivers) were present on 
Windows versions of the same drivers....
