Comment 8 for bug 148160

hi, what say the:
cat /usr/lib/pm-utils/defaults

in my case is a desktop computer, but i set this:

SLEEP_MODULE="uswsusp"
HIBERNATE_MODE="shutdown"
# These variables will be handled specially when we load files in
# /etc/pm/config.d.
# Multiple declarations of these environment variables will result in
# their contents being concatenated instead of being overwritten.

# If you need to unload any modules to suspend/resume, add them here.
SUSPEND_MODULES="nvidia ehci_hcd ohci_hcd uhci_hcd iwl3945 button"

True, you don't edit the file /usr/lib/pm-utils/defaults
because that till we overwritten with new version of pm-utils

go to the file and put the same i tell you up, and try if that work for you...
sudo nano /etc/pm/config.d/config
and write the prefferences.

if you have errors, go and read the manual:
http://en.opensuse.org/Pm-utils
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pm-utils

or try google
