Whenever I try to put my laptop into either suspend or hibernate mode
(i.e., close the lid when not plugged in) the laptop _seems_ to be
trying to go to sleep but never quite gets there. The battery light
stays on, the sleep light (crescent moon) light blinks, but there's no
disk activity and the power light stays on.



For what its worth - I have a sandy bridge W520 and i can sleep it no
prob at all. Caveat:

1) I'm using KDE

2) I installed the 3.0 koji kernel (with a few needed companion
packages - I can detail this if you like).

3) I note that a newer 2.6.38 build is in koji with some sandy bridge
fixes that may help.

4) I have the nvidia optimus but at the moment I have turned off the
nvidia in in bios so am using the intel i915 graphics. Haven't had time
to deal with trying this - too many other things to deal with on this
laptop.


So it definitely works on F15 with the right pieces in place.
