Minimum needed for hibernate and suspend

Hello all

I've installed stock Ubuntu 9.04 onto an old laptop. Hibernate and suspend are working fine when I set the appropriate settings in the gnome power manager.

I'd like to use much lighter software on this 256Mb ram laptop (standing memory use is 90 to 100 Mb and I'm going into swap when running any applications).

What is the minimum I need to get hibernate on close lid and suspend working? How do I find out what packages are needed over a cli install? Do I need gdm and the gnome power management stuff?

Thanks
