Check the achieves from last month.  Someone posted a link to info about
getting S2 working, I would have included the link but can't find it.

Subject: getting hibernate / ACPI suspend to work

Hi,

After recently getting standby and suspend to work on my FC3 laptop (by 
finding out that the agp settings for the nvidia driver needed
tweaking), I'm 
trying to get hibernate (suspend to disk) to work for my dell 8600. I
run kde 
and activate standby / suspend from the klaptop battery icon. However,
if I 
try hibernate nothing happens. What is this applet doing behind the
scenes - 
Can I activate these from a console to see any errors etc. ?

I understand I probably need to install something to get hibernate to
work, 
but not sure what (software suspend 2 perhaps ?). Has anyone managed
this, 
and do you know of any good instructions on how to do this.

Chris
