Question regarding Suse 9.1 and power managment

First of all I want to apologize for writing this email in English, but my German is terrible so I think I will have better success in English. I have been reading reviews of Suse 9.1 but no one seems to mention anything about power managment issues. Can anyone tell me if Suse 9.1 will be capable of using ACPI to send a laptop into sleep states, for example hybernate? Has anyone tried this and how well does it work? I tried the LiveCD version of 9.1 but it didn't give me any power management options as it complained about some package that was missing. Thanks and again, I apologize for posting in English. Rade
