I agree.  I have recently installed Rawhide on my laptop (IBM T40) and
got gnome-power-manager with suspend to disk working (the only problem
was the non-support for swap partitions identified by label, already in
bugzilla but I can't remember the number) and it is superb.  I now plan
on pretty much never rebooting again.

Kudos to all those who worked so hard to make the bits join up - kernel,
hal, dbus, g-p-m!
