The acpid daemon logs all the events that it sees to /var/log/acpid

What is recorded there when you close and open the lid?  or press
Fn-F4 (on my T30) to initiate sleep?

Based on what I saw there, I've created these files to make it work:

******* /etc/acpi/events/lid.conf *******

event=button/lid*
action=/usr/sbin/pm-suspend


******* /etc/acpi/events/sleep.conf *******

event=button/sleep*
action=/usr/sbin/pm-suspend

I don't know about the T20, but my T30 sleeps and hibernates properly
provided that I use pm-suspend and pm-hibernate, respectively.
Make sure you have installed the pm-utils package, eg, 
    yum install pm-utils

The other way of sleeping,  acpitool -s ,   doesn't work.
There have been some changes in recent kernels.  I'm currently running
kernel-2.6.17-1.2174_FC5 in which pm-suspend works correctly.
