There is a fix needed to get s3_bios/s3_mode to work again in 2.6.26.  If
you can live without them, that's good, it is faster to not call the BIOS in
the resume path.

But if you cannot (i.e. there is no way to make the resume work fine without
s3_bios and/or s3_mode), wait for 2.6.26.1.  You need the patch that uses
BRM (Big Real Mode, 4GB segment limits) when calling the BIOS.
