[mythtv-users] ACPI sleep problems

I'm trying to make my MythTV box (both frontend and backend) suspend to 
RAM when it's idle.  Everything I read says I just need to set the 
wake-up alarm by echoing a time and date to /proc/acpi/alarm and then 
suspend the machine by doing:
     echo -n mem > /sys/power/state

However, whenever I suspend the box it does a hard-powerdown instead and 
powering it up again just leads to a normal boot instead of a resume. 
Does anyone have any ideas what might be going wrong?
