There is at least one problem for which I don't think that you will have
S3 working even in the near future.
You do have a radeon 9700 and due to lack of supports by ATI those days,
I don't see how a developper can include power management codes in any
drivers other than by a cycle of guess, then try and guess again what
happens on errors.
Note that S3 may work though if you do not have AGPGART compiled,
and you do not use any kind of binary-only drm drivers from ATI.

Cheers,

 
Would an older ATI card, like a Rage 128 Pro or original Radeon (7000 I
believe) work?
