I have a Vaio F560 and I can hibernate/suspend just fine. My kernel
config is identical/similar to that of Theodore Knab. You don't need a
special partition but you need a spcial save2dsk.bin file. If you kept a
windows partition around it should be just fine.
$ ll /mnt/win98/save2dsk.bin

To hibernate/suspend just press the Fn+Esc/F12 combinations. Suspend
is the mode I prefer. The laptop can stay on suspend for pretty long
(>>1day) without power and when you restart it (hit any key) it restarts
in 5-10 seconds.
