Anybody know if Lucent will cough up anything for the 2.4 series?

Try building framebuffer into your kernel (so that it will properly
handle resetting the graphics mode - covers for the bugs in the
savage X server when going back to text) and configuring your apm
to switch to text mode before doing the suspend.
If your machine isn't happy enough with the speed of doing it via
script, fetch the source for the mandrake cooker version of apm,
and compile it locally. They added it to the code and gave it a
commandline switch, -g I think.
