Hi Ben,
You're a genius! I gave that a go (actually I made that edit in 3 locations in
that file, per your earlier email on the topic -- was that okay, or should I
do it with just the one line?) and it seemed to help. Sleep seems to work
now, including with the X server (DRI on or off), although I haven't yet
subjected it to more extensive testing (with HAL, playing with USB and
Firewire devices, doing post-wake tests to see if I can reproduce those funny
disk errors, etc). There are several second long delays when the X server is
involved, with lots of onscreen psychadelics. I'll remove the delays in the
radeon driver per your earlier post and see if that helps.
Right now I'm tracking down why the X server won't go past 640x480. It's a
problem also with unpatched 2.6.12-rc2, so now I'm compiling vanilla 2.6.11
to see if the problem manifests itself there. The Xorg log reads:
(II) RADEON(0): I2C bus "DDC" initialized.

(II) RADEON(0): Color LCD: Using default vrefresh range of 43.00-72.00 Hz
(II) RADEON(0): Clock range: 12.50 to 350.00 MHz
Now, under Ubuntu's 2.6.10, it also defaulted to 640x480, but by adding...
HorizSync 31.5-48.5
VertRefresh 40-70
...to xorg.conf, I was able to get it to happily do 1024x768. If 2.6.11 also
gives me the problem, can you recommend anything to me? Might there be
something I'm doing wrong in my kernel's .config?
Thanks for all your help Ben,
Steve
