Re: Modify the brightness without the use of Framebuffer

[James Ballantine <james@ballantine.com.au>]

This may be a complete red herring, but I found with my 2003 12" 
powerbook that if you use the riva fb, you can suspend to disk fine, as 
long as you switch to a console (ctrl-alt-F1 or whatever) before 
suspending for the first time. After that you can suspend straight from 
X with no problems as often as you like, until you next reboot the system.

Hope this helps!
