Well, I've tried it with the "radeon.default_dynclk=-1" option. Just booted, I
start X with DRI disabled and it works. But if I enable DRI, it crashes.
After that, I've applied this last patch and make the

Ok. Tested it with plain 2.6.12-rc1-bk6 kernel. It crashes (black
screen, no keyboard) but the hard disk continues spinning.

Hey Ben.

Hi Ben.
Just now I've tested the new release candidate: 2.6.12-rc2 (plain, no
extra patches). I've tested with cpudyn enabled a

Ok. Those tests are with plain 2.6.12-rc1-bk6 kernel. I summarize you:
1) Boot in console mode.
2) Sleep/wakeup cycle correctly.

Hi Ben! Here we go again:
I've done the same tests with your new patches and in all cases it happens the
same. Resume correctly, but hang up when wakeup. I got removed "cpudyn" a
