I've recently got it to work somewhat reliably on a Z1A,
using the 2.4.21-rc4-laptop1 (from linux kernel for laptops)
kernel.  

I had to add: "resume=/dev/hda6"
as a boot option to the kernel, and /dev/hda6 is my swap partition
which is 50% larger than total RAM.  

I run this script (probably RH9 specific) to put it to sleep:

  umount /proc/bus/usb
  /etc/init.d/network stop
  /etc/init.d/pcmcia stop
  /etc/init.d/xinetd stop
  rmmod ehci-hcd
  rmmod usb-uhci
  echo -n 4 > /proc/acpi/sleep

and this script after a sucessfull resume:

/etc/init.d/network start
/etc/init.d/pcmcia start   
/etc/init.d/xinetd start
hwclock --hctosys
