Can you explain me how you do this? call_usermodehelper() doesn't work =
for me=20
at resume time.

BTW, I had a look at the radeon card's resume code at 0xc000:3 and atte=
mpted=20
to implement it in a kernel module. The code is pretty simple, but it's=
 quite=20
long. My module isn't finished, it only turns off the display and reset=
s the=20
memory. I had to stop because I've a lot of things to do for school now=
=2E

Ole Rohne meant that the code is potentially dangerous because it pokes=
 around=20
with undocumented PLL registers, so I will not send it to the list: I w=
ill=20
send it only to those who explicitly ask for it.
