Its /proc/acpi/sleep and this will not work for you on 2.4 kernels (echo 3 > ... is S3 mode and echo 1 > ... is S1 mode). S1 and S3 modes are only implemented on 2.6 and are still troublesome on some machines. The only way to suspend on 2.4 is using swsusp2. > the path of the sleep file) which doesn't work at all.

Up to what point does the suspend process go? Any error messages on the screen or in /var/log/(syslog|kern.log|messages). Did you append the line resume2=swap:/dev/<swap partition> to the kernel (using lilo/grub or whatever you are using?)
