Hi!
What hardware are you using? Is it a laptop or desktop pc?
I's a Dell Inspiron 9400.
I suspend happily with a Dell Inspiron 9100, but I think the 9400 is
different enough to worry about...
Few general suggestions:
1. update your bios to latest version.
2. Try to load motherboard-specific acpi module (e.g. asus-acpi for asus
notebooks, or acer-acpi, or ...)
I think there isn't any for dell. Correct me if I am wrong, cause I'm not at
the laptop right now.
I noticed nvidia in that list. Can you suspend without it? Try booting
without loading the nvidia module at all (sometimes even just loading
and unlaoding the nvidia module can cause issues with suspending). Also
stop as many services as possible and unload as many modules as possible.
Then when it works, you can add modules one by one and keep testing the
suspend / resume behaviour.

actually plan ahead to see where resources should go.
