I'm using FC3t3's latest kernel, 2.6.9-final, but with a lot of
patches.  I looked at the changelog and none of the patches seem related
to ACPI.

The problems I have are more than just the screen.  I tried 

% echo 3 > /proc/acpi/sleep ; touch foo

Then I resume, look at my blank screen for a while, and then reboot
(with the power button).  'foo' is never created.

But it is great to see some real progress is being made.  Thanks
for those links!
