the screen goes dark and the computer appeared to go to sleep perfectly (little orange blinking light as expected) I wait a few seconds and push the power button, and the system comes right back as it should with the following on the screen:
03:27 alchemy~/linux/apps/phoronix-test-suite> sudo s2ram -f Switching from vt7 to vt1 fbcon fb0 state 1 fbcon fb0 state 0 switching back to vt7
That's excellent. Now why do I have to be root to do it? What permissions can I change so I can suspend it without root privileges? Thanks in advance for any help.
Well, s2ram permissions are root only. What you want to do is go through the "official" channels and create and edit the file. Mine is as follows: S2RAM_OPTS="-f --acpi_sleep 1" Just place the appropriate parameters that work for you (in this case only -f) in there. Now when you choose Suspend-to-RAM from the shutdown menu it will use these param to suspend. See http://en.opensuse.org/Pm-utils for full instructions.
