Yes, thanks Maks! I just loaded linux-image-2.6.35-1~experimental.2 on a Dell Latitude D430 sid and it fixed the suspend/resume problems. (Q though: why does it depend on a linux-base that doesn't exist?)

Some numbers and thoughts on the stable kernels

linux-base is used for the UUID transition. In Ubuntu it was the udev package that renamed the fstab and some bootloaders. afais linux-base is in experimental. When installing from exp one needs to tell apt to do so with ``-t'' switch aka:
apt-get install linux-image-2.6.35-trunk-amd64 -t experimental

Hope that helps otherwise please ask on debian-kernel mailinglist.
