[ltp] Fedora Core 5 & T43: Suspend & resume?

Hello,

I've upgraded my Thinkpad T43 to FC5.  Things continue to work quite
nicely; ACPI suspend and resume works when I use this kernel:

  Linux raktajino 2.6.16-1.2115_FC4 #1 Mon Jun 5 14:45:53 EDT 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Relevant kernel command line parameters:

  acpi_sleep=s3_bios acpi_serialize

However, the more recent kernels that come with FC5 kill the X
server as soon as the machine wakes up; this is, of course, not
acceptable.

I wonder if this is one of the usual suspend/resume problems from
the "they may fix it in half a year" category, or whether there is
some configuration trick, additional driver, or whatever else that
would help fix this.

Also, what do people here use to suspend and successfully resume
their Thinkpads?

Thanks,
