    Great!

    I never disabled it.

    Good. I guess that's highly chipset-specific.

    I used to unload modules, shutdown network interfaces etc. until I
    tried without all that stuff and it still worked. So I concluded
    that stopping things before suspend was a thing only needed with
    older kernels. Granted, mounted volumes on USB or IEEE1394 still
    have problems because the kernel doesn't expect them to disappear
    for a few moments, but that's nothing a module unload would fix.
    Simply umount all external drives and use my script. Drivers which
    still need to be unloaded and reloaded are buggy and have to be
    fixed.

    I'll prepare a web page with detailed S3/S4 suspend/resume
    information for ATI graphics card owners including step-by-step
    howtos for smooth suspend/resume cycles.

    Kendall Bennett is working with me to get suspend/resume working
    even with framebuffers. Once we have results, I'll post them here.
