As I already stated in the bug report, the kms file is NOT missing.  I'm
not exactly sure why, but it didn't get removed.

Contents of /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf:

options radeon modeset=1

I forgot to include this in the report, sorry. I have already tried with
the kernel and X from experimental, no different outcome.

Only after trying both from experimental did I switch to trying Ubuntu's.

Also, once I installed the X driver from Ubuntu, all 3 kernels (Maverick's,
Squeeze's and Experimental's suspended and hibernated correctly), so it
looks like it's not a kernel problem, it's an X problem.

So, newer kernel doesn't help, the kms file is not missing.  Why could
Ubuntu's driver be making suspend work?
