Update packages fix this issue by upgrading to new version 0.5.9.1,

some laptops.

Update:

An error was introduced in the previous hal-info bugfix update that
prevented suspend for IBM-based laptops. This package fixes the error
and adds additional laptops to the suspend/hibernation compatibility
list.

As well, the cryptsetup-luks packages are being made available as
they weren't available on all CD/DVD install media.");
