You could try the notorious "sleep" function, I guess. You have to send
a certain number to the /proc/acpi/sleep file, depending on what sleep
state you want to enter...

echo 3 > /proc/acpi/sleep

This is suspend-to-RAM.

echo 5 > /proc/acpi/sleep

This is suspend-to-disk.

I've never yet met *ANYONE* for whom this works, but what the hey, try
it. :).
