I hate having to recompile the kernel, just to be able to debug suspend.
Remove CONFIG_DISABLE_CONSOLE_SUSPEND, replace it by a tunable in
/sys/power/disable_console_suspend.

Second try, no longer uses a sysctl in /proc, but a tunable in /sys/power.
Thanks Frank for moving it quicker to sysfs than i would have ever been
able to :-)

In case the STD does not work on your system even in the minimal configuration
and compiling more drivers as modules is not practical or some modules cannot
be unloaded, you can use one of the more advanced debugging techniques to find
-the problem. First, if there is a serial port in your box, you can set the
-CONFIG_DISABLE_CONSOLE_SUSPEND kernel configuration option and try to log kernel
-messages using the serial console. This may provide you with some information
