If I recall correctly the problem is that suspend/resume doesn't work 
with the dual cores in the latest IBM notebooks. There were attempts on 
getting it working on a IBM X60 on FreeBSD-7.0-CURRENT some time ago, a 
quick google found me this on it: 
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-mobile/2006-November/009326.html 
I'm not sure on the status of that project at this time, but you might 
find more information by browsing the current archives

Good luck,
