Yes, I had similar problems.  The same story is true of Gentoo (which I use 
now).

Be careful!  All this ACPI stuff is so darn experimental.  It doesn't work 
that well either...  I'm hearing more and more rumours of them dumping all 
ACPI stuff altogether.

If your laptop starts to slow down a lot, you may have killed your swap 
partition.  Fix it by:

# mkswap [your swap partition, ex. /dev/hda2]
# swapon [your swap partition]

When I had a failed suspend-to-disk, it killed my swap partition and I had to 
revive it in that manner.

May the Force be with you!
