USB used to be a big problem, but Greg and the other USB guys are doing great
work, and it has improved a lot since 2.6.12.

The worst areas now are video drivers, particularly where DRI and/or Nvidia
are involved.

Following that there are some is frequently used hardware such as firewire and
hardware that people try to suspend less often, such as scsi. ACPI, cpufreq
and the like have accounted for a share of problems in the past, but are
generally ok now.

Hope that helps!

Nigel
