Blueprint changed by Dustin Kirkland:

Whiteboard changed to:

This is linked to DeviceKit-power, and improved power management:

So this one should be merged with the DK-p one...

DONE (Dustin): To use suspend/hibernate on the server, pm-utils should
be added to the server-ship seed.  Looking at the rdepends and what
we're currently missing, it looks like it should be pretty easy, and
cost somewhere around ~150KB of CD space.  -- :-Dustin

DONE (Dustin): I have successfully tested suspend and hibernate with my Asus P1-AH2 installed with jaunty-server-amd64, and resumed with wakeonlan.  I needed to:
 1) Enable S1&S3 in BIOS
 2) Enable wakeonlan in BIOS
 3) add a kernel parameter (acpi_sleep=old_ordering) to the grub boot options and update-grub
 4) enable wakeonlan in the OS with: 
   $ sudo ethtool -s eth0 wol g

Power meter testing (Dustin)
 55W: Non-loaded, running system
 12W: Suspended system
 8W : Hibernated system
 8W : Powered off system

Added MIR for wakeonlan, Bug #327662
