I put this in a shell script that runs when I close the lid of my laptop. In /etc/acpi/events/sample.conf, I put this: event=button/lid.* action=/usr/local/t40suspend.sh The contents of t40suspend.sh are as follows: echo -n "mem" > /sys/power/state && hwclock --hctosys echo -n "mem" > /sys/power/state is the equivalent of echo 3 > /proc/api/sleep hwclock --hctosys sets the system time from the hardware clock.
