and here.

I use swsusp on a R50P, running SuSE 9.1 with their latest kernel with
ACPI. After resuming  from suspend-to-disk, X freezes with a garbled
display if DRI is enabled. (as usual)

The fact that the card is a mobility/notebook type card (where you can
be expected to suspend), makes me extremely sour towards ATI. How many
generations of garbage do we have to go through before this will be
fixed?
