Hi

It seems that suspend & resume is still a fairly big one to shoot to...

I have an i915GM with xorg-server-1.3, xrandr-1.2, libXv-1.0.3, gentoo
distribution.
A am quite happy with it, but there are two issues regarding to
suspend & resume:

 - first, LVDS backlight is not properly set during resume (either
full brightness or backlight completely turned off, but cannot alter
them any more). after changing VT and back, everything works as usual.

 - second issue is video overlay. if I use xv overlay and then suspend
the machine, next time it's completely broken. Sometimes it shows only
about the leftmost 30% of the overlay, and the rest is composed of the
rightmost 1px of the visible overlay (with horizontal stripes on it,
if you can imagine that, it's weird...). Sometimes only the color
keyed area shows up and X freezes completely.


Do you have any ideas? I have tried to compile the git version of
xserver, but module ABIs were not matching, so it's not a real option
here...

thanks,
 Adam
