I have the same machine, and swsusp works fine (echo "4" >
/proc/api/sleep) if I ifdown ath0/rmmod ath_pci first, but suspend to
RAM doesn't, although with 2.6.2 the moon now lights up.

Actually the machine will suspend to RAM, and resume, but the screen
stays black.  From what I've heard, this may be because you need a
patch for the radeon support, but so far, I've been fine with swsusp
and my little powerbutton.sh script.

Hope this helps.
