This is not a fix, but just a remark for people reading this...

I got the original tuxonice patch for 2.6.25 working without many surprises:

- download http://www.tuxonice.net/downloads/all/tuxonice-3.0-rc7-for-2.6.25.patch.bz2

- un-bzip, gzip and place the .gz file into its 'Debian location', /usr/src/kernel-patches/diffs/tuxonice/ (that is, unless you want to patch scripts so that the original bzipped archive can be used. NB: the 2.6.24 patch that is part of the debian package is also the exact original patch located at www.tuxonice.net; the file is just bigger because it's gzipped instead of bzipped.)

- modify the script '/usr/src/kernel-patches/all/apply/tuxonice'; change 4 variables to include data for the new kernel

KVERSIONS=(2.6.24 2.6.25)
PATCHFILES=("/usr/src/kernel-patches/diffs/tuxonice/tuxonice-3.0-rc7-for-2.6.24.5.patch.gz" "/usr/src/kernel-patches/diffs/tuxonice/tuxonice-3.0-rc7-for-2.6.25.patch.gz")
DEBPATCHFILES=("" "")
STRIPLEVELS=(1 1)

(NB I was not interested enough to change /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/unpatch/tuxonice too)

I could now perform my usual make-kpkg routine. I got one error, however. The patch script ran cleanly and printed "Done.". Then, right afterwards, something told me "dpkg: /usr/src/kernel-patches/diffs/tuxonice/tuxonice-3.0-rc7-for-2.6.25.patch.gz not found."
and make-kpkg exited.

However I just reran my make-kpkg command and that (like any make process) went on where it left off, this time without any error. I didn't check what the exact process was that gave the error; I got a .deb and am running 2.6.25 now.
