If you have a standby button on your laptop, you can probably make it
do a standby or hibernate by merging acpid and modifying
/etc/acpi/default.sh.

Personally, my system does a suspend-to-ram when I press the standby
button, and a suspend-to-disk when I press (momentarily) the power
button.  My actions for the buttons look like:

                        power)
                                if test -f /etc/.acpi_ignore_power; then
                                        rm -f /etc/.acpi_ignore_power
>/dev/null 2>&1
                                else
                                        touch /etc/.acpi_ignore_power
                                        /usr/sbin/hibernate
                                fi
                                ;;
                        sleep)  /usr/sbin/hibernate -F
/etc/hibernate/standby.conf
                                ;;
