Hi,
I have a hard-to-reproduce problem with radeonfb and suspend-to-ram:
I'm using radeonfb with fbcon in a pure console environment for most
os the time (with mplayer on X11 being the rare exception) and I
sometimes encounter display corruption after resuming from suspend to
RAM. My notebook is a ThinkPad X31 with this Radeon model:
0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY (prog-if 00 [VGA])
Subsystem: IBM: Unknown device 052f
Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping+ SERR+ FastB2B+
Status: Cap+ 66MHz+ UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR-
Latency: 66 (2000ns min), Cache Line Size: 0x08 (32 bytes)
Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 11
Region 0: Memory at e0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M]
Region 1: I/O ports at 3000 [size=256]
Region 2: Memory at c0100000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
Expansion ROM at c0120000 [disabled] [size=128K]
Capabilities: <available only to root>
Resuming from suspend-to-ram works flawless in roughly 98% of all cases, but
sometimes the display gets corrupted; some bits are set in the display in a
weird way and the display starts to shift with every line break. An example:
$ foo
$ foo
$ foo
(The display wraps around on the after side for each line)
When running reset(1) the display returns to a state where the whole screen is shifted
to the left by two chars.
The last time the problem occured I started X11 to check, whether it is affected as well
and everything seemed alright expect a blocky area following the mouse cursor, but after
roughly 30 seconds the system locked up hard.
I cannot really reproduce it reliably, but if someone tells me which data I would
need to collect (a register dump or something similar?) I can send it the next time
the problem occurs.
This problem is not specific to the 2.6.15 kernel, it occured with several previous
kernels as well.
Cheers,
Moritz

Happens here, too... or happened, I think I have a solution. Reseting
video card during resume seems like a way to go.
Could you get s2ram.c from www.sf.net/projects/suspend, and add your
X31 with same parameters as X32 system, and let me know if it helps?
(You'll need an -mm kernel for parameter to be passed into kernel).

I'll do that, but it might take a few weeks until I can tell you wether
it worked, the bug only arises every few weeks.
