Thinkpad T61p

Hi,
I just bought a Thinkpad T61 with the Nvidia graphics card (256 Mg) and am having trouble with suspend/resume. In fact it does not work at all. Only the fan seems to behave normally. It starts and stops the way it should, both when running on AC or battery.
I'm running FreeBSD 6.3 i386 Final and I have absolutely no idea as to what drivers should I load to make this work. I've searched all over the internet but never found any information specific to my Thinkpad model that would help me solve this problem.
I know that I'm supposed to add an entry to my /boot/loader.conf file but I don't know what to enter there.
Can any one please tell me EXACTLY what to enter in that file to enable suspend/resume? I'm not too worried about the special keys, but if I can get them to work too, that would be nice.
Perhaps someone who also owns a Thinkpad T61p can help me.
Thank you very much.

First of all, you cannot use suspend resume on SMP kernel with
any version you can get.(I succeeded to make suspend/resume work on
SMP environment yesterdey with 8.0-CURRENT of April.)

Thanks for your prompt reply. So, I might as well forget about enabling suspend/resume on my laptop?
Is there any other options left?
Thanks again.
