I don't see problems with those messages.  What does the lspci command
report for devices (or "lspci -v" or "lspci -vv").  It appears to be a
video interface or BIOS compatibility problem.  Most suspend to disk
or suspend to RAM modes require good driver support but many
manufactures don't provide enough hardware info.  On many systems, one
or the other may work but often not both.  Maybe check BIOS settings
and see if any BIOS/video caching or shadowing options are enabled.
