swsusp is for suspend to disk, not suspend to RAM i think. from the rest of 
your email, it looks like it's suspend to disk you are interested in.

the howto is for a 2.6.11-rc2 kernel and the radeon patches are only for a 
suspend to RAM issue. they would not help for you.

i don't use the proprietary frgl driver so can't help you with that, sorry. 
maybe search the archivres for swsusp2 and fglrx? i seem to remember reading 
that more recent version of the driver had better power management modes.
