Okay, what does "dbus-monitor --system" display when you try to
hibernate?

Do you have the correct commands listed in hal-system-power-suspend and
hal-system-power-hibernate?

In case you don't know the architecture, g-p-m calls a Hibernate()
method on HAL, and then hal runs the hal-system-power-hibernate script.
This in turn runs the correct hibernate command for your distro.

The last step is probably where you are having the problems.
