SubjectRe: [BUG] 2.6.11-rc[234] setfont fails on i810 after resume from ACPI-S3

Well, current state of video resume is "we are happy to see anything
at all".

So... screen goes blank even when suspend is not involved, right?
Sounds like a bug to me ;-).

Well, dumping random stuff to console can produce funny results. I'd
call that normal. Try cat /dev/urandom, that should be "enough
random".
