Is this from X or from console ? Try it without X running and without
framebuffer. Also, try apm -s and spm -S rather than fn+f4 in case something 
isn't quite set up right. 

apm -s and apm -S worked on my T30 (2.6 kernels, with X) 

Also, when you think its frozen, see if you can still connect to it from
a network connection via ssh/httpd/telnet, whatever you've got running.
