I have the same (similar) problem, and posted a question under the thread "can't apm resume with debian 2.6.8" (no replies though). I use Debian/Testing on my R40. APM works like a charm under 2.6.6 (haven't tried 2.6.7). However, when I upgraded to 2.6.8 I could susupend, but nothing happend when I open the lid. I have to reboot. Looking at my logs it appears as if all devices go to sleep Ok. But there is no indication that the system even get an indicator that the computer wants to resume.

I know that Testing updated apmd very recently, but I've tested suspend today with both 2.6.6 and 2.6.8. And yes, I use the "stock" kernel options for APM.

Perhaps a bug should be filed with the Debian team.
