Felix,

I've tried some coding to make savage resume looking at radeon resume
code but failed completely :(( Unfortunately I'am ABAP/4 developer - not
a C guru. 

The only thing that may help real dri developers to suggest how to
resume - when I switched DMA mode from command or vertex to "None"  i've
lost about 5 % of speed but  the dri system was able to resume from disk
if no glx apps were running. And even with glx apps running it was
resuming, but the glx apps were resuming with black window. Anyway after
resume I was able to start glx apps and they worked, with dma enebled I
had to pull a power cord and battery out to restart.   And the bug is
not in the kernel I guess - restarting X after resume with enabled dma
works fine.
