Thinkpad R51 and sleep

So, I bit the bullet, and have a Thinkpad R51 now running Fedora Core 3
+ all the updates

My display controller is:
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corp. 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics
Device (rev 02)

When I try to put the machine to sleep, via my acpi config
in /etc/acpi/actions:
#!/bin/sh
VT=`/usr/bin/fgconsole`
/usr/bin/chvt 1
/bin/sync
/sbin/hwclock --systohc
/sbin/rmmod ehci_hcd
/sbin/ifdown eth0
/sbin/rmmod ipw2100
echo -n mem > /sys/power/state
/sbin/hwclock --hctosys
/usr/bin/chvt $VT
/sbin/modprobe ehci_hcd
/sbin/modprobe ipw2100

It sleeps just fine, however, trying to wake it up is where I start
losing joy. The display doesn't come back up (so I hit ctrl+alt+f1,
login as root, and reboot the box)

So I appended acpi_sleep=s3_bios to the kernel, and tried to see if that
might work - no joy, it kernel paniced!

Anyone got sleep working on the Thinkpad R51? Thanks
