The answer is, mostly yes.

    $ sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove

Then

    $ sudo /usr/sbin/pmi action suspend
or
    $ sudo /usr/sbin/pmi action hibernate

both work, but in both case the display doesn't come back.  I can ssh
into the laptop after waking up, but the screen comes back black with
sleep, and is stuck on the splash screen with a wake from hibernate.

Can uswsusp co-exist with my existing suspend?  I'm curious about
using this:

I've also been told that suspend2 tends to work the best.  Anyone have
experience with that?

I reset my init.d scripts for gdm by using

    $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
