Hey James,
Thanks for you answer.
However, I kept looking for answers and found this today in omgubuntu:

It worked for me in 11.04 perfectly. I just followed the instructions there.

I enthusiastically installed Ubuntu for the first time on a Toshiba M100 last night and set it to hibernate when I had finished with it for the evening. After being met by an unresponsive system today and doing a quick search online I learnt that there seems to be an issue with hibernate. As I had nothing of any value on the system I did a re install. I had to use an additional monitor in order to proceed as the Toshiba display would not wake up. Now that the re install is complete the only way that I can use the laptop is by using the extra monitor.
Update for 11/10 Oneiric:
Pressing the power button again failed to suspend my laptop. I have to something different with nearly every release.
I tried making panel launcher with
gksudo "pm-suspend --quirk-s3-bios --quirk-s3-mode --quirk-dpms-on --quirk-vbe-post --quirk-vbestate-restore"
and that worked but I hated having to enter a password just to suspend.
The real solution is simpler:
In /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh
comment out the last line:
#/sbin/shutdown -h now "Power button pressed"
and enter the suspend command, along with whatever quirks your machine requires:
/usr/sbin/pm-suspend --quirk-s3-bios --quirk-s3-mode --quirk-dpms-on --quirk-vbe-post --quirk-vbestate-restore
Finding the quirks is a matter of trial and error.
I think grub no longer needs modification, but my one line
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="i915.modeset=1"
doesn't seem to hurt anything.
