Here's what I get:

(mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:~)$ pm-is-supported --suspend
(mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:~)$ echo $?
0
(mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:~)$ pm-is-supported --hibernate
(mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:~)$ echo $?
0
(mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:~)$ pm-is-supported --suspend-hybrid
(mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:~)$ echo $?
1

Though I'm questioning this last once since I tried to do:

pm-is-supported --suspend-hybrid && echo $?

and it never showed the RC, telling me the command itself failed.

It can. Check out my blog post [1] about how to disable it.
