Suspend (and things like support for detecting that the lid has closed)
tends to be closely linked to ACPI, which involves interpreting data
that the BIOS provides (and which is often dodgy).
So an updated BIOS often brings updated ACPI data, which fixes ACPI
stuff in the OS.
Hope this helps,
James.
