I have a similar problem with a Dell C840, apm instead of acpi, and a GeForce 4. What do you mean by "to boot twice" ? Is it "exit from suspend mode twice" ? I've tried the vt kludge, worked fine some times, but it's not a good solution. What I noticed: Sometimes, when opening the lid, the system run into "resume suspend" mode, then go immediately into "critical suspend". Then I close and reopen the lid, and the system is doing a "critical resume". AFAIK, "critical" apm is called with low battery status. I've no other information about it. Sometimes, the system freeze (no more keys but poweroff) after opening lid, and I must reboot. PS: Sorry for my english.
