I have done this before, and it does bring the computer into suspend
indeed (light flashes). But for my real problem, noise reduction, this
doesn't help of course. The disks keep spinning, and so do all fans
(CPU or whatever). 

In contract, if I suspend in Linux of Windows, the computer shuts up
immediateley and is quiet. Only sometimes there is a (not too loud)
little fan (I think it is the CPU fan) running for a few more minutes.
