I am not going to install Windows Vista on any machine ever, so this bug will remain at an impass.
The only BIOS update available is for Windows Vista.  Using a bootable Winows PE cd does not allow me to run the BIOS update utility...
I will continue to use the hacky workaround instead.

Title:
  Sony VAIO VGN-FW275J doesn't resume from suspend

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Everything works quite well, including suspend.  But the computer
  simply rebooted, instead of resuming from suspend.  I never use
  suspend, so It is working fine for my daily needs.  I use the kernel
  full time daily without any major usability issues, save for this
  small issue that normally wouldn't effect me.

  WORKAROUND: Edit the /etc/default/grub file:
      gksu gedit /etc/default/grub

      Look up the line where it says:
      GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"

      and change it to:
      GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_sleep=nonvs"

      Save and close the gedit file. Update the GRUB menu:
      sudo update-grub

      Reboot and enjoy!
