Some *other non-driver related packages* this could hardly be more vague.

The more information you give, the more information you'll have chance
to get help from people on this mailing list.

Are you using the plain install of Debian 11 ?
Have you made some configuration changes regarding hibernation and power
management ?
What what does *does not suspend properly* is supposed to mean ?
It may be clear in your own mind but for everyone else it could mean
many things. For example :
Does not suspend at all
It only turn off the display but does not suspend the computer itself.
The computer suspend but doesn't resume properly.
The system start to suspend but crash doing so.
The system suspend properly but crash waking up.
The system suspend properly but wake up as if it was turned off.
The system start to suspend but goes into a unknown state...

etc.

Also your computer may have many configurations, which one you have ?

Maybe installing hwinfo package and sending the dump of *hwinfo -all*
here could help. You can use *apt-get install hwinfo* and after use the
following command in a terminal *hwinfo > hwinfo.txt* then send the
content of *hwinfo.txt* (for example opening in a text editor and
copying into a message).
