Suspend/Resume broken on Ubuntu

Irritatingly suspend/resume stopped working around about the time I upgraded to Karmic. After going down a few blind alleys I eventually looked at dmesg and saw:

cannot set freq 16000 to ep 0x86

...which is due to a broken driver for the Quickcam 5000, which wasn't broken in Jaunty. Unplug the webcam and resume now works again.

I must remember to check whether I've plugged the camera back in which is why I am having suspend issues again...

Because suspend issues are really irritating.

And I'd like my computer to suspend- and unsuspend- correctly.

Its mostly the un-suspending which is broken.
