I have several notebooks running Scientific Linux 6.3. 

The suspend function is working quite well, except for one problem: 

When a notebook mounts a Samba share, plays a few videos through this share then the suspend function stops working, and the notebook suddenly needs *5* minutes to suspend.

Again, this problem only occurs if they watched videos over the samba share.

**QUESTION**: WHY? does samba keeps something open and need a timeout of 5 minutes, just after the suspend function has been involved or what?

Any suggestions on where to look to find out what's going on would be appreciated. Or a way for I could write a bash script to check when is the suspend button pressed so that I could do xy\* thing to the machine. 

(\*xy=anything that corrects this problem)
