Problems resuming from S3 in 2.6.16
I used to suspend/resume my Asus V6V (Radeon Mobility X600 video card) laptop without problems in 2.6.15 with little problems using vbetool to resume video card state.
Starting from 2.6.16 resume hangs when accessing X, either by switching to X virtual terminal or starting X from scratch.
Trying suspend/resume from single mode with all modules unloaded doesn't change situation.
I tried with both custom-compiled vanilla kernel and debian unstable kernel without success
This is the script i use to resume/suspend:
chvt 2
vbetool dpms off
vbetool vbestate save >$statedir/vbe
cat /dev/vcsa >$statedir/vcsa
echo mem >/sys/power/state
vbetool post
vbetool vbestate restore <$statedir/vbe

My Panasonic R4 is similarly affected. I hadn't made the link with the upgrade 2.6.16 and the failure to start X after resume as so much else has been changing.
My script is very similar to the one above.
