Subject: Framebuffer + suspend = black screen

Hi,

I am installing Debian on a (very) new Toshiba laptop, details: http://www.freed.net/opensource/R100.html

Running 2.4.22-pre8, I am using the framebuffer (vga=792), and use both consoles and Xfree86. When I suspend, either with APM or with ACPI, upon resume the screen is black, and there is a blinking cursor on the top left, which seems to have reverted to some rather old mode (24x80?). This problem is the same if I am in Xx or on the console. The keyboard continue to work, so I can work blind if I like....

There seems to be a similar problem with the fact-usb driver (ehci-hcd) losing its way during suspends, but that is not your department as such.

Please Help!

Thanks!

Sam
