Yes, that is another alternative. Just for those who are interested: If
you disable blanking in the bios, you can bring the laptop so sleep with
<Fn><F4> and back again with the same keys. Just blanking (<Fn><F3>)
doesn't work. After resume some peripherals are still "sleeping" (just
another ACPI issue), especially the internal network adapter. You can
bring it back by issueing an "/etc/init.d/network restart" as root from
a terminal window. At the bottom line: You can, currently, use that
brand new modell with RH9, applying some workarounds until the ACPI
issue is solved.

Good news! Is that kernel as a test case available at people.redhat.com
or elsewhere?
