You have to set it manually at bootup (add it to /etc/rc.local), but after suspend/hibernate the values are normally restored by pm-utils (eventually this might happen in the kernel). In the past some devices needed a manual override in /etc/pm-utils-hd-apm-restore.conf But this might not be needed anymore. Regards Till
