Suspend to RAM is a really, really important feature for a lot of people. If nobody that uses Ubuntu with ATI drivers can recover from suspend... that's bad. That's really bad. In fact, it meets the definition of High imporance:

"Has a moderate impact on a large portion of Ubuntu users (estimated)" (from the <a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Importance">Ubuntu wiki</a>).

So, what's gonna happen here? If ATI doesn't fix this before April, we really need to revert to an older driver that doesn't exhibit this behaviour.

Seriously, it's getting embarrassing. I unplug my laptop and carry it to a meeting, at which point it's dead. What do the others at the meeting think?

"Gee, Linux doesn't seem very robust."

So, can we revert back to 8.28.8, or whatever the last version of FGLRX that worked is?
