Hi Wade,

What I was referring to above relates to the backend config, which 
doesn't apply to your frontend. Nevertheless, I am happy to help.Most of 
the info you need is essentially in this thread. You need to start 
experimenting with:

echo mem > /sys/power/state

to try to put the system into the S3 (suspend-to-ram) state. You may 
need to unload kernel modules or kill processes to make this work. Post 
how you go to the list, and I (or others) will make some suggestions.

Cheers,
Leighton
