Thanks for the tip.  I was able to get the notebook to go into / come out
of suspend a few times with that parameter.

Without X, suspend/resume seem to work fine (except that the backlight
stays on unless you physically close the lid).

With X, I can suspend, but resuming garbles the display.  The machine
isn't locked up, as I was able to switch to another VT and "shutdown -h
now" safely, but it's otherwise unusable.

That's one step forward, at least. :)
