Look how swsusp handles it: we switch to text console (which means X gets told to bring vga card to some sane state). We should do the same for S3.
I'm using vesafb, which needs no special support for suspend/resume ;-). [And its very good for system stability; with notebook's LCD I don't care about low refresh (1).] Pavel (1). I've seen notebooks LCD flashing at 25Hz, but VESA modes are fortunately better than *that*. -- When do you have a heart between your knees?
