New developments, on my Ibook G4 revision 1.2 sleep now works fine ! On
the older revision 1.1 Ibook here is what happens, when I press f1
(without fn) the screen gradually returns to normal brightness, and the
gtkppbuttons icon appears during process, this happened back when sleep
worked, but now curiously sleep ie suspend to ram doesn't work at all,
when I close lid or press button screen goes dark that's it. Don't
remember how I  disabled sleep but its done, can't even get sleep when I
modify accordingly powerprefs (front end that modifies
ppbuttons.conf)...
