Well, it does work, kinda...  except that when I resume I get a gui notifying me:  "Your computer failed to suspend.  Check the FAQ page for common Problems." (the 'page' link takes me to this url: http://www.gnome.org/projects/gnome-power-manager/faq.html#set_power_save)

For some reason HAL did not think it did suspend and had to notify me.  I am thinking that needs to be addressed as a bug report?
