I tested the F18 build, everything works except for resuming in (2).  My
ThinkPad wakes up and before I can unlock the screen it goes to sleep
again.  I have to press the power button to wake it up again.  I can
unlock the screen after this.  I have been having this issue since I
switched to F18.

Hope this helps,
