Can you give me a link to this patch? I'd like to try it.

My T43p with an M24 1T FireGL works pretty good now: I have glx working,
but dri is disabled, since I have acpi_video loaded. With no other patches
applied, I can now (since the dri updates from last week to -stable)
resume with no problems, and the backlit is turned off during
suspend (this has been the case for quite some time now. before that, I
needed some acpi_video patches to achieve this). I have no dri/gl specific
ports installed, but radeon.ko and drm.ko get loaded when I start X.

thanks, Tobias
