I'm befuddled. Laptop either refuses to sleep, or refuses to wake up.

I've checked out http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Problems_with_ACPI_suspend-to-ram, and resolved the first two issues on that page (permission and write error).

My latest attempt to sleep the machine is to get a console as root, and do:
Code:
echo mem > /sys/power/state


That does something, but not enough, apparently. My latest experience is to get the sleep "beep", and then a very quickly flashing sleep light under the display. Machine is completely unresponsive after that. Only holding down the power button for serveral secs. seems to be effective.

I've also tried using klaptop from KDE, as well as kpowersave, neither has worked.

My suspicions as to cause: ati proprietary drivers (FireGL 5250 video card), SATA support in kernel, or some weirdness with the Core 2 Duo processor.

I've tried to eliminate the ati drivers from the equation by hitting Ctrl-Alt-F1, logging in there, and doing a sudo /etc/init.d/xdm stop. System still won't sleep properly when doing the "echo" I show above.

System is pretty much current & stable, with the exception of the ATI drivers. emerge --info output:
Code:

what about the other issues on the thinkwiki link you mention? Could it be something kernel related?
Dunno, but perhaps this can help http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Software_Suspend_v2
