Vice runs on X11, too, of course. I only added SDL support to VICE to be
able to use it on fbdev. I will cleanup things in the freevo plugin a little
bit and then post it here.

If I find the time I will definitely write that wrapper. It should be fairly
easy. Using ALSA loopback capturing for visualization is also a general
solution to other (audio) players in freevo and could run in parallel
(think of the detach audio mode).

Good to see that I motivated others to test 2.6.9. For ACPI junkies like me it
is first choice.

I also had to do that, but I think we can live with that as loading/unloading
some problematic modules does no take too long. At least not as long as
booting the whole machine and working through tons of init.d scripts.

Freevo shuts down within a second and starts within 5 seconds if you put 
XINE_VERSION and FBXINE_VERSION into /etc/freevo/local_conf.py (and
10 seconds without; btw, why is that not mentioned in the FAQ or elsewhere,
I had to look into the code to find that trick). Therefore, I simply stop it
before suspend and  start it after a resume. My scripts also load/unload
some modules. I had to do that because they did not reinitialize themself
on resume. However, with earlier kernel versions resume crashed the
whole system every second time.
