I happened to log in as root and it showed a separate suspend button (I'm using KDE 3.5, not 4.x) Suspend-to-disk was surprisingly fast.
Are you guys sure there's no configuration I should check? Shouldn't any user be able to suspend the system like in 10.3.
I don't know about Gnome as I don't use it as a desktop. I should have pointed out that I was talking about the location of the suspend options under KDE4. Looking under KDE3, you're right that the suspend options a missing from the normal users log-out box. I'll think about it and might file a bug report about this.
However, as a normal user, I can still suspend to disc or put the system into standby by using the kpowersave applet.
Kpowersave is also what I use if I want to do it by hand. Right Click it. However, you can also set kpowersave so that simply closing the lid (if its a laptop) will suspend to disk (or ram, your choice). That's what I do most often. My laptop gets cold booted maybe once a month, the rest of the time its just suspended.
