just for other data points, 2.4.7 (RedHat), 2.4.9 (RedHat), and
2.4.12-ac6 respond OK to Fn-Suspend on my C600.

occasionally i get a suspend that won't resume correctly; the
framebuffer gets hosed such that it looks like the screen is cut into
vertical strips and rearranged. but Fn-Suspend works, and i can
resume, and the machine is still running fine (i.e., i can reboot it
if i can maneuver the mouse to a window ;-).

what i've never gotten to work on the C600 is suspend on closing the
lid. Worked great on my old Latitude CS... gotta love Dell, the cases
look the same but everything inside is a crapshoot.
