On my 600, if there is a PCMCIA card in the slot it won't hibernate
(it'll just beep like the original poster mentioned).  You don't need to
unload sound drivers and it doesn't matter whether or not the laptop is on
AC power or not when you hibernate.  (It doesn't matter on the 380XD
either. :) )

I didn't have to do anything special to PCMCIA services to get the
laptop to hibernate - just so long as no card is in.  If it'll help, let
me know and I'll post my APMD configuration.  My 600 runs a rather stock
Redhat 7.3, but it shouldn't really matter what distribution you run.
