I've already made the recommended change. Knowing if it works isn't too hard, it's just time consuming. It reliably crashes at least once per week. If I go a week without crashing then I for one will consider the workaround successful.
I've already got strong suspicions that Option "NoDRI" prevents it from occurring, but as mentioned this leads to standby/resume problems.
In any event, assuming it doesn't crash before then I will report back in a week to let you know if the workaround is successful.
