Well, not all drivers have KMS support. The one for my machine does,

it indeed works, but still.

Hi Samuel,
thanks for your quick reply.
As I said, uswsusp now supports KMS, therefore the kernel driver should
have KMS.
With this support the database is not updated, because normally, the
kernel has (or will have) support for the driver. Probably, in the
future, the database will be removed, but that is not in my hand. In
that future, without database, we should provide a config file to
support the machines without driver or without kernel with KMS (compiled
without KMS for any reason), but IMO without database. The database
maintaining is hard, and the KMS is one reason to drop it.
Therefore, IMHO, this bug should be closed, and if one machine (video
card,...) has problems because the kernel driver don't have KMS support,
the bug should be reassigned to the kernel package, because the problem
is in the kernel driver, not in uswsusp (suspend-utils).
Please, comments are welcome, is only my oppinion.
Best Regards.
kix
