Followup: I decided to upgrade my P2B BIOS version. I had 1005, went
to 1010. This made a difference!
Now suspend works. However still the disks keep spinning until they
reach their BIOS timeout. In Linux & Windows, there is some hook when
going to suspend mode that spins down the (IDE) disks. This is nice,
since it is well possible that you go to suspend but do not set a disk
spindown timeout.
Weird that 1005 did not, but 1010 does suspend with FreeBSD (& your
patch, I didn't try without it again), while 1005 did work with Linux
& Windows. That's why I didn't think of upgrading before.
I'll report what happens with the original (non patched) kernel
later.
