Thanks Andrew, I read that page already from Randy and tried issuing a 'uadmin 3 21' to check if suspend to RAM is supported and it returned to the command line immediately with no message, so it looks good I think. I have 'S3 suspend to RAM' enabled in my motherboard's BIOS. However, as expected, when I try 'uadmin 3 1' to check for ability to suspend to disk, I see messages on the console saying that it is not supported. This makes me think that by issuing the 'uadmin 3 21' to verify ability to suspend to RAM has succeeded, and therefore my machine and it's drivers should be able to suspend to RAM. In the BIOS I enabled wake up with keyboard and WOL, and neither work. Well, to be a bit clearer, the display started flickering when I hit CTRL-ALT Backspace, which should go to the graphical login, I think. So I'm guessing it's a video driver issue (Asus EN6200LE video card that uses NVidia chips).
Now the behaviour using 'uadmin' was different than pressing the power button. The power button has been configured in the BIOS to invoke suspend S3 to RAM if pressed for less than 4 seconds. When I push the power button, a dialog is displayed with options: Suspend or Shutdown. Selecting Suspend seems to really put it in suspend mode as disks spin down, machine becomes silent, screen blanks and the LED on the front panel flashes, so it looks good. The problem comes when I try to wake it up/resume. Keyboard and WOL ignored even though they have been configured to wake in the BIOS. I don't know what to do next and I have already spent some time head scratching with this.
