How recent? Does this driver also turn off the backlight during S3?

Unlikely. At the moment, X doesn't know that the system is suspending.

No, x.org from FC3 does nothing whatsoever when you suspend your 600m, because X doesn't know that the system is suspending. That's fine, though, because (for the most part) we don't /want/ the X server to fuck about with the video registers since on resume we're going to fuck about with them ourselves.
