Can you try compiling SMP support out of your kernel, disabling the second core in the BIOS, and seeing if you have the same problem? If suspend starts to work then the problem is that i386 suspend isn't properly implemented for SMP. Recently, amd64 gained suspend/resume and works on SMP. Although this support hasn't been merged back to 7.x, it might be worthwhile booting the 8.0 amd64 live CD and seeing if that works for you - if it does, there's probably more chance the amd64 support will appear in 7.x before the i386 suspend support, so maybe you could consider moving to amd64. > 2 The ath0 wifi support, I test and nerver find it can transfer with > more than 5MB per second rate. > 3 The big problem of my laptop is the intel video card, xorg eat up half > of my memory,and it's very slow moving windows . I'm afraid I can't help with these, other than to say that wireless support in 8.x is much better than in 7.x. Indeed, given how close 8.0 is to being released (a few months away, I believe), it may be best either to wait, or to consider upgrading your system to -CURRENT amd64 and seeing if your problems are already resolved.
