Unfortunately, it does quite the opposite on the S6010, it breaks resume completely. If the pipe A quirk is disabled, then the boot console works correctly. Resume does not, the display is dead, but it is possible to remotely connect to the machine, from there POST the video card (via vbetool post), stop X, then restart X, then the display is back. If the pipe A quirk is enabled, then try to resume from suspend, then the machine is dead completely. You can ping it, but not log in. I currently have not yet tried to figure out where it hangs, but I would suspect the problem is somewhere in the i915 kernel module. The display just stays black. Thus, in addition to the watermark fix I proposed, please *disable* the unconditional pipe A quirk for the 830GM since it really breaks things, not only the boot console. Greetings, Thomas
