pm-suspend + chromium = frozen computer

I've been using Arch for a few weeks (hello! and great distro!) without any problems except when resuming from pm-suspend. Actually, the only trouble seems to be after resuming then starting Chromium, oddly enough. I can resume fine but if I start Chromium then the computer will freeze. Or if I have Chromium running when I suspend the computer won't resume. Other programs do not seem to be a problem. Any ideas?

I am more than happy to post any hardware, driver information, logs, etc. Just let me know!

Thanks.

Here's an update: I'm using an NVIDIA graphics card and I can confirm that this problem exists with either the VESA driver or the nouveau driver.

Maybe you could try looking in /var/log/pm-suspend.log, see if any errors is posted there?

Never had a similar problem but, if you haven't already, read the wiki on pm-utils.
