Finally running hibernate - fake Xserver is not enough. So my final solution:

1) Create xorg.conf without dri support.
2) Create xorg.conf.dri with dri support
3) Run X for normal work (mozilla, chat, gnumeric etc.)
4) If you need dri, run an extra X with startx -- :1 -config
xorg.conf.dri This one has to be restarted after every
hibernate/resume cycle, but the "work X" stays active, with all the
browser windows et al.

I guess this will do it for me since I only need dri for playing around...

HTH, Heiko
