I think I've fixed my Ubuntu 8.04 screen/keyboard/mouse-freeze issue ... but should I upgrade to 8.10?

Every time I write about Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, which I've been running on my Gateway Solo 1450 laptop since its release in April, I mention that it's the only GNU/Linux distribution I've used that successfully suspends and resume the computer. And I've made that feature — suspend and resume — the bar over which other distros must jump to "beat" 8.04 on this platform. Make no mistake, I've "enjoyed" a working suspend/resume capability. But I haven't enjoyed returning to the laptop after a while to find the screen looking normal but the keyboard and mouse completely dead. CTRL-ALT-backspace won't kill X. CTRL-ALT-delete won't reboot the machine. I need to do a hard boot with the power button to get things working again.
