I'm having this same problem on my powerbook 5,2 gutsy.

Some extra observations:

/usr/lib/hal/hal-system-power-pmu sleep

Does seem to work in all cases, except when the GDM screen is formost (tested by using sleep to have the command issued after I've switched to VT7.)

Running "suspend" from the GDM actions menu does nothing, and I see this in the syslog:

Nov 20 17:08:12 localhost gdm[9409]: WARNING: Request for configuration key daemon/SuspendCommand=, but not type STRING

Any ETA and when the patch above will be in the repos so I can update? I'd also much rather have been bumped to another VT than have the machine hang after suspend.

Thanks,
