For what its worth - I have a sandy bridge W520 and i can sleep it no
prob at all. Caveat:
1) I'm using KDE
2) I installed the 3.0 koji kernel (with a few needed companion
packages - I can detail this if you like).
3) I note that a newer 2.6.38 build is in koji with some sandy bridge
fixes that may help.
4) I have the nvidia optimus but at the moment I have turned off the
nvidia in in bios so am using the intel i915 graphics. Haven't had time
to deal with trying this - too many other things to deal with on this
laptop.
So it definitely works on F15 with the right pieces in place.
