Hello,

for me it worked to downgrade all X servers (38 packages, done
automatically by dependencies as soon as the savage server is marked for
downgrading) to the latest lucid 10.04 version. This stopped the strange
X crashes due to switching to text consoles or blank screen / DPMS (in
my case with an S3 savage card).

So it is definitely an issue with the xorg packages. The standby/suspend
issue, however, is NOT resolved by this workaround, but screensaver,
DPMS screen off and any text console switching works flawlessly (and the
card is faster than ever before).

The standby/suspend issues seem to be able to be addressed by fiddling
with uswsusp, pm-utils (downgrade) and laptop-mode-utils.

Anyway, the bugginess of maverick is quite annoying - not only in this
case.
