"xset -epms" should disable the screen blanking --- it's not an acpi
option.
Using ACPI you hibernate using:
echo 1 > /proc/acpi/sleep
Unfortunatly I don't know how to unhibernate. I suspect you echo '0' to
the file, but am not sure. Am going to test oneday.
Also, make sure you're using the latest version of acpi...I'm using a
patched 2.4.18 kernel to get acpi to recognise my hardware correctly.
