there is a 'power' icon that appears in system setup if you install 
APM. You can open it and select suspend from the program menu. I 
haven't worked out how to add it to the desktop properties menu as the
power function is a DLL. Similarly I don't know how to enable it 
automatically after a period of disk inactivity. Everytime I try BIOS 
controlled features like disk power-down it just makes OS/2 very 
unstable.
