I would be happy with S3. I am however a little confused about the abilities of my server as reported by sysctl hw.acpi. As commented below this line suggests that no other states than S4/S5 are supported: hw.acpi.supported_sleep_state: S4 S5 But this is also listed: hw.acpi.standby_state: S1 hw.acpi.suspend_state: S3 Are these last two overridden by the first, meaning that S3 is not available from my BIOS???
