Why do you supose none of these are working quite right for me?
"echo 3 > /proc/acpi/sleep" and "echo mem > /sys/power/state" both show in the /var/log/messages

And 4 and disk don't do anything.. How can I enable this method, or any idea why they don't do anything? Catting either file shows
$cat /sys/power/state standby mem disk
$cat /proc/acpi/sleep S0 S3 S4 S4bios S5
Thanks Davy

S3 is suspend to RAM (MS calls it standby, IIR) S4 is suspend to disk (MS calls it hibernate)
you can enter either state directly via # echo 3 > /proc/acpi/sleep # echo 4 > /proc/acpi/sleep
or equivalently
# echo mem > /sys/power/state # echo disk > /sys/power state
