You are probably using plain VGA console, where usually no difference
between S3_BIOS and S3BIOS|S3_MODE can be seen. It does, however, affect
vesafb for example. So if "-a 3" also works for you, i would use this in
the whitelist, since actually the risk on ThinkPads to suddenly change
in this regard is pretty low IMO :-)
