laptop standby

[Santiago Erquicia]

When I do that on my toshiba laptop everything shuts down nicely.  The
problem is that when I turn it on again, it actually goes alive and then
shuts down completely like when you are shutting it down from gdm.

Any idea of what's going on?  Where should I look for more information
(logs)?
