No you didn't.  S3 doesn't work in 2.4 kernels (it will be supported in 2.5/2.6)
and S5 doesn't put your machine to sleep - it turned it off (very abruptly, and
without any proper shutdown). S5 isn't really intended for users.

Normal shutdown sequence.

In 2.5, probably.

You have an ancient ACPI anyway, so you don't have the ACPI patches applied.
