Ok, I have installed the version from experimental (2:2.0.0-5). The problem
still persists, i.e. the screen is blank (it's just the LCD backlight which
is not turned on, you can a dim picture) upon resume but I can get it
back with "vbetool post" *and* switching to and fro a text-console
(vbetool alone won't do it).

Passing "acpi_sleep=s3_bios" will also fix it and *without* the need of extra
console-switching. So 2:2.0.0-5 + "acpi_sleep=s3_bios" work perfectly :).

But why would I still need to pass the extra kernel command-line, can't
you take care of this within the driver code ?

PS: Video overlay on the LCD also works for me with the 2.x-driver now.


Thanks alot for your work !
