Sleep on a Lenovo Ideapad Slim 3i?

Hi all,

I am struggling to get sleep working with my laptop. sysctl tells me "hw.acpi.supported_sleep_state: S4 S5". If I type "acpiconf -s 4", it appears that the laptop is going to sleep very quickly. However, the only way to "wake" it is to press the power button, and doing that causes it to boot from scratch instead of resuming from sleep.

Are there any settings I can try to try to correct this behaviour?

Thanks in advance!
 
S4 means suspend to disk. There are certain requirements before that works, you need a special partition for example.

Why S3 is not listed cannot be said from here without more information.
 
It seems S4 requires machine BIOS/UEFI S4BIOS support:

acpi(4)
Rich (BB code):
    hw.acpi.supported_sleep_state
             ...
             S4      Suspend to disk.  All devices are powered off, and the
                     system stops running.  When resuming, the system starts
                     as if from a cold power on.  Not yet supported by FreeBSD
                     unless S4BIOS is available.
