Thanks for posting that.  It prompted me to give S3 another try,
and this time I got it working.  My problem turned out to be just
that I had a "vga=791" grub option, which I think means I was using
framebuffer?


So just for the record: 

Sony Z1A  Fedora Core 3  (no framebuffer!):  
S3 works.  Screen is not be functional after resume, unless
I use that video_reset tool mentioned in nils bug report.
And the console is in an unusable state after resume, but X is
working great.
