  Hello all,
  I have an old Dell D610 (R300) which was doing
  what I wanted (films, openarena, tv-out, suspend) with Fedora
  10 until fglrx 9.2 (or was it 9.1?) arrived. Anyway 9.3 didn't help.
 
  Now suspend fails. Black screen if you try. The log file
  http://www.phoronix.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16312#
  after reboot, thinks it succeeded. Does anyone have it working?
  Do I have to unload fglrx manually?
  Thanks for any clues - its a major hassle for me.

 not sure, but this might be relevant.

 Thanks Suvayu,
I don't think this is my issue; I do have X working, it is
suspend I lack.
I posted saying 9.3-2 had fiexed it, but this was premature. I managed to
suspend a couple of times, but that is it - it stopped again. So
annoying
Bill

 Sorry, I'm afraid I'm of no help, but 9.3-1 works just fine for me on F9
 with an M56P (Radeon Mobility X1600)

 Are you sure its not something else specific to F10 instead of fglrx?

 Thanks Kevin,

If I revert to vesa it all works fine. Doesn't prove it was
fglrx's
fault. But anyway: 9.3-2 fixes it for me!

Open source is the future. It sets us free.

While I can't help with debugging the situtation, I'd recommend
switching to the free drivers, because

1) They are free software
2) They are really supported in Fedora
3) They should work on your hardware out-of-the-box
4) The next fgrlx release from AMD is going to drop support for
R300-based Radeon cards.

Hi Joonas,
 You are correct of course. But they are just too slow on 
my relatively old hardware,

I cannot, for example, watch a film comfortably fir the radeon driver. But
I did put in a bug report for the recent bugzilla day...
