Yeah, sorry about that. My newly installed sylpheed seems to have had
wrapping off by default; weird but true.

Thanks, but with 2.6.9-final it actually does resume, so luckily I won't
have to suffer the beeping :)

I do hit the video problem though. I've tried the stuff in
power/video.txt, but mine doesn't seem to be among the few systems with
a solution at the moment. I don't have a Radeon, so I haven't tried the
radeonfb-patch that's been floating around
(http://www.loria.fr/~thome/d600/), but the part that mentions "you may
insert a similar call from the vesa frame buffer driver to obtain
similar results for a wide range of cards" intrigues me. Could this be
something to try? Or is this already what acpi_sleep=s3_bios does?

I'm on an Intel 855GM by the way.

Jon
