Hi Brad,

I tried both (both from git). The radeonhd driver only gives me a blank
screen on the vts after a suspend/resume cycle. The ati driver is even
worse (for me). If I switch to a vt after suspend/resume I get a blank
screen and can not even switch back to X afterwards. Ssh-ing to the
machine and issuing a reboot is my only option (a hard reset would be
too) to get back to a usable system.=20

Could you share your xorg.conf and your kernel boot options (maybe I am
missing something in my config).

thanks=20
