You should check the msgs given before he wakes up.
Look at dmesg. Usually this occurs if one device (on my T40 its the USB 
Controller)
isn't able to suspend. You perhaps find something similar to
"Unable to suspend device 0000:00:1d.7"
So take a look at lspci an you'll see which device it is.
In my case, with usb, I've to stop hotplug before suspending.
