It may seem painful, but look at swsusp2.  It uses a vanilla kernel and 
suspends to disk so you can use ACPI to hibernate.  The hibernate 
scripts have options to deal with X and other drivers when resuming.  I 
use it on a T41.  Suse 9.2 out of the box with some modifications also 
worked well for me, but I have a different chipset than the A31 or T42p.
