[ltp] TP suspend/hibernation

[Jay Lyerly]

The newer releases of redhat do this out of the box (don't know about
other dists.), but all you need to do is run

hwclock --hctosys 

to set the system clock from the hardware clock when you come out of
suspend.  Add a --utc if your bios time is stored in Greenwich Mean
Time.

Suspending the TP does not affect the time in the BIOS, just the time Linux reports (ie. through the `date' command). I realize that this is a result of how *nix keeps track of what time it is, but don't know how to fix it.
