alsa is perhaps broken WRT sleep or suspend support. I find that usually
it doesn't matter if modules are still loaded as long as they are
automatically reloaded on boot (if hardware init is required).

As you already discovered, trackpad state isn't being preserved unless
it's set up early enough during boot (before restore of the suspend image
happens).

mol will work, and the key to avoiding swap collision is swap priorities
(as I've explained before). pmdisk uses the first swap partition, so you
need to make sure the second swap partition has the higher priority. The
remaining 62 MB should be enough. In a pinch, you can even swap to a
swapfile in one of your partitions (make sure the priority is higher than
that of the pmdisk partition). I've not actually tried this, might horibly
clash with disk suspend, use with caution.
Re: mol - which version do you have working with 2.6 kernels?
