 Umm... had you already started X when you tried this? My firsts tests (with 
mine) showed that, with bad XF86Config-4, the machine could not sleep 
correctly.

 I feel like not helping, but give a chance to another XF86Config-4 to do more 
debug.
 If you prefer, you could try the configurations I use. You can find them in

kernel/ is the one I use.
