My understanding is that you need to also try:
pm-suspend --quirk-xxx
each quirk alone, and then again with each other. This amounts to 
hundreds of combinations.

I looked at the existing quirks list, and found a few nb's from the same 
manufacturer {or with same chipset/video}, noted and tried those quirks. 
After 15 tries, I had not had success.

I wish you better luck. {if not set gnome-power-manager to just turn 
backlight off at lid close and suspend activation.

I wonder if a quirk can be written to disable suspend on machines that 
are found to be problematic, so that we don't lose information by default.
