How did you manage it to put the machine to sleep without a crash at
wake-up?

The solution I found for this was on:
http://spacepants.org/hw/tibook/

Excerpt:
--------------------------------------------------------
I found that XFree86 and the radeon driver can't actually recover
from a sleep unless the following option is also set in your
XF86Config-4 Device section:

Option "AGPMode" "4"
-------------------------------------------------------

And it seems helped here, as from that moment on (i.e. since 1 week
ago) my machine never crashed after wake-up. Except the screensaver an
hour ago needed some time to recover.

To, more or less, understand this option I found this:
http://www.morlug.org/radeon

And for the sake of completeness: the diff for my current
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and the one I used before (IIRC: I did some more
changes then than the one above):

I'm still waiting that someone will answer your question here.
Let's hope someone knowing more than me will read this ... :)
