Try playing with one of the pm-suspend settings. See pm-suspend --help
for the possibilities. Open a terminal and as root and try for example:
# pm-suspend --quirk-s3-mode
or
# pm-suspend --quirk-s3-bios
or
# pm-suspend --quirk-s3-mode --quirk-s3-bios

My laptop (Acer TM6460) needs the first one to properly suspend.
Also have a look on this webpage:

You may need to create that unload_modules file in /etc/pm/config.d/ and
add some modules like iwl3945, kvmv, kvm_intel.

Dunno about common. My laptop suspended/resumed fine with FC6 but with
F7 it's not resuming anymore. For a work-around try one of the examples
I gave above.
