I have same issues with Sony PCG-Z1WA.

No any luck so far with suspend/resume, tried different modules, acpi
variables, some patches floating around about restore video on resume -
no result. It dead after resume, HDD is spun-up on resume, but no any
other visible effects (display back-light is off, LCD is of too, it does
not respond on keyboard, it does not respond on network, it does not
show any activity on firewire console, it does not respond of ACPI power
button).

Also, it looks like Sony BIOS no longer support s4bios mode - I have
created sony hibernation partition with PFDISK but I can't initiate
hibernation.
