I used suspend to disk on SuSE 10.1 beta 8 out of the box and it
worked (though there was a subsequent RPM issued to fix a problem with
the CPU speed of core 2 on resume).  Suspend to RAM did not work (on
wake up the screen stayed black and there was generally no disk
activity though keys like caps lock would flash the indicator lights).
 I haven't tried the various BIOS options for suspend to RAM yet.

Thanks,
    Aaron
