Hi James,
Are you willing to share your .config file and perhaps some notes on how you got Software Suspend 2 working? I also have an A22p and would *love* to have it working because every FC3 kernel since 2.6.9-1.681_FC3 has suffered from the following APM bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=144415
Ed & James (and any other Thinkpad users)-
How is your power consumption during ACPI suspend? Thinkpad users interested in ACPI because of the above APM issue should also track http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3022
You'll also want to watch out for the clock skew issue https://bugzilla.redhat.com/beta/show_bug.cgi?id=144822
BTW, the devel kernels seem to be recent enough to solve the APM issue for many of us.

What type of video card does this system use? You might be a victim of the dreaded X consuming all cycles bug. I got around this on my Thinkpad A22p by switching to a non-X session (Cntl+Alt+F1) and suspending/hibernating from this session. When I resume, I have to kill off gdm to recover, if the video driver is built as a module. I built another kernel with the driver built into the kernel and this seems to fix this problem, but brings in other problems.
