either your distro/desktop has to provide an interface to this:

- closing your laptop display lid to cause a suspend
- a button somewhere in your desktop

or you can do it manually by doing either

- echo -n disk > /sys/power/state (for suspend to disk / aka hibernate)
- echo -n mem > /sys/power/state (for suspend to memory)

also, you'll need to add the `resume=/dev/sdaN` option to your boot loader so that
linux can resume from that partition if you chose suspend to disk.

all the docs are under /usr/src/linux/Documentation/power/
