Sorry, exmh's defaults are a little wacky in some areas..

I've got both PSM_HOOKRESUME and PSM_RESETAFTERSUSPEND in the kernel 
conf, and have had for a long time. It's hard to tell with any certainty 
if they actually make any difference at all.

It's a little sub-optimal, as I'd actually *like* the touchpad to get 
disabled and use the trackpoint all the time (sometimes you get a stray 
mouse click from the touchpad when typing, if you're careless).

In Real Life (TM), the touchpad never fails to come back...

Nope. 

This "wedge-on-reboot" seems to be an Omnibook-specific issue that 
appeared around the time the PC-CARD interrupt handling got reworked.

Apparently, upgrading the BIOS fixes it, but I'm a little reluctant to 
take this step because everything else works perfectly - and I've got so 
used to shutting down rather than rebooting, that it's only crashes and 
auto-reboots (e.g. from 'sysinstall') that tickle this here now... :)
