OK, that sounds good, because if it's an X issue, it's Someone Else's Problem :-) I'm a little concerned because Marco said that after a resume, "cat /dev/ttyS0" caused his system to hang, and not even Ctrl-Alt-Del worked. Can we blame that all on X? Would stopping the X server before suspend and restarting it after resume be a workaround?
