How's this? I changed the Travelmate C300 entry because the
documentation I found to get the C110 working was actually for the C300
- it just happened to work for the C110 too
(http://www.umich2.com/files/2004/12/linux_on_the_ac.html).

POSTing bios works. Ole Rohne has patch to do just that at
http://dev.gentoo.org/~marineam/patch-radeonfb-2.6.11-rc2-mm2.

+ (8) on some systems, you can use the video_post utility mentioned here:
+ http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3670. Do echo 3 > /sys/power/state
+ && /usr/sbin/video_post - which will initialize the display in console mode.
+ If you are in X, you can switch to a virtual terminal and back to X using
+ CTRL+ALT+F1 - CTRL+ALT+F7 to get the display working in graphical mode again.
+
Now, if you pass acpi_sleep=something, and it does not work with your
bios, you'll get a hard crash during resume. Be careful. Also it is
safest to do your experiments with plain old VGA console. The vesafb
