use software suspend2, just put it to sleep when needed - it will take off again at boot. Much better than "emerge --resume" - especially after a few hours into openoffice ...
After trialling it on my laptop, Ive even converted my 24/7 gateway over - can sleep it and restart it faster than a clean boot when needed (passing thunderstorms, expected power outages etc) A much undervalued function!
