I have no trouble suspending and resuming using Suspend2 in my 1GB
laptop.  I also apply the 1G Lowmem patch, so that it does not need
highmem support to see all of the RAM.  I wonder if that patch alone may
fix the legacy suspend for 1GB laptops?

Q: What about laptops with > 1GB?  Some desktop replacement lapwarmers
support 2GB (they use desktop chipsets).  Suspend2 works great on those,
by the way.
