Thanks for that. removing both those devices let me suspend/resume 
from single user mode and a bit more investigation showed it was iwn0 
which caused the problem.

I tried bring up the desktop (kde4) and ifconfig'ing iwn0 down before 
removing it and then suspending, but resume then failed and the 
machine rebooted so I suspect I will need to poke around with a 
simpler X setup to find what is causing the next problem.

At least I am over the first hurdle - thanks again!

Cheers,
Dave
