How do I get suspend to work on a ThinkPad 560 in Linux? Perhaps I did not

I have a Hitachi Visionbook Elite, which claims to have
ethernet built in. The manual, believe it or not, says, "to
connect your laptop to a LAN, plug one end of the LAN
cable into the MODEM JACK, and the other end into the
LAN hub." ifconfig shows it as eth0, but it seems to be
inaccessable, and
