Yes,
quite FAQ ... so look through the archives and you will probably find 
the solution.

FWIW here is my gotosleep script and you will see two lines which use 
hwclock ... :)
#!/bin/sh
/usr/local/bin/radeontool light off
if lsmod | grep '^usbhid' >/dev/null ; then
    /sbin/modprobe -r -s usbhid
fi
if lsmod | grep '^uhci_hcd' >/dev/null ; then
    /sbin/modprobe -r -s uhci_hcd
fi
if lsmod | grep '^ehci_hcd' >/dev/null ; then
    /sbin/modprobe -r -s ehci_hcd
fi
logger "Fn+F4 Suspending to RAM"
sync
hwclock --systohc
#echo -n mem > /sys/power/state
echo -n 3 > /proc/acpi/sleep
hwclock --hctosys
if !(lsmod | grep '^ehci_hcd') >/dev/null ; then
    /sbin/modprobe -s ehci_hcd
fi
if !(lsmod | grep '^uhci_hcd') >/dev/null ; then
    /sbin/modprobe -s uhci_hcd
fi
if !(lsmod | grep '^usbhid')   >/dev/null ; then
    /sbin/modprobe -s usbhid
fi
logger "Resuming from Fn+F4 Suspending to RAM"
/usr/local/bin/radeontool light on


HTH,
