In 2.6.18, it's under 'Power Management Options'. Check 'Software

I'm sorry for being slightly offtopic, but how can I know if my PC supports suspend-to-disk?
I frequently have several programs open and I sometimes keep the PC on overnight in order to have the same open programs in the morning. It would be better on the environment if I always powered down the computer.
