Suspend to disk does not work on my Thinkpad T60:
First, /etc/pm/hooks/30s2disk-check complained about a missing suspend= parameter (this might be related to the problem that I was unable to create a swap partition during initial installation), so I added suspend=/dev/sda6 (my swap partition) using the Yast Bootloader module.
Now, I get the following error message: ===== Sat Mar 10 17:23:00 CET 2007: running hook: /etc/pm/hooks/30s2disk-check ===== INFO: checking for suspend-to-disk prerequisites... ERROR: resume partition '/dev/hda6' not active, can not suspend
It looks like you added "resume=/dev/hda6", not "resume=/dev/sda6". You can simply change this in /boot/grub/menu.lst

You are right: I incorrectly added resume=/dev/hda6 instead of ...sda6. Probably the resume=... parameter was not added during initial setup because I could not add a swap partition because of Bug 253393: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=253393 Having resume=... corrected, Suspend to Disk seems to work now.
