Suspend-to-RAM using the keyboard function keys should work. APM-style
suspend-to-disk (in a special partition) might work. ACPI-style
hibernate I don't think will work. (It might be in the ACPI stuff, but
that's not standard yet and I haven't tried it out.)
Note that not all hardware will do this reliably due to BIOS bugs, XFree86
driver bugs, and stuff. If it doesn't work smoothly for you, take a look
at /etc/sysconfig/apmd for some workarounds to try.
