I have a report of a Inspiron 500m working with "s2ram -f -a1". I _guess_ that "s2ram -f -a3" might be even better. Try it from a minimal boot (init=/bin/bash) and also try the other options described on http://en.opensuse.org/S2ram > When I hit ctrl + alt + F1, the console that comes up is gone, and all > subsequent consoles through F6 are also gone.

Once you found out the options you need, you can put them into /etc/powersave/sleep in the variables SUSPEND2RAM_FORCE="" SUSPEND2RAM_ACPI_SLEEP="" SUSPEND2RAM_VBE_SAVE="" SUSPEND2RAM_VBE_POST="" On the s2ram page above there are also links to the powersave configration.
