I tested the 2.6.38-3-natty mainline kernel. The system boots and is usable, enters suspend mode, but upon attempting to resume is unresponsive, the backlight doesn't come up, no display, keyboard is unresponsive and system doesn't respond to pings on the network. At some point I saw capslock flashing but it stopped after a bit.
I also tested v2.6.35.12-maverick, with this kernel the system boots but when trying to enter graphical mode becomes unresponsive, no keyboard, network ping or display (screen is black). Maybe some Ubuntu-specific modifications are what enabled the actual shipped Maverick kernel to work?
