No need to appologise! I know you did your best to provide all the useful details and that's what matters. Also, will this experience it will be easier to detect similar cases in the future. > Nonetheless, I've included the debug output, the agpgart source with the > software suspend patch added as well as without it and the software > suspend patch itself for both the list archives in case anyone else runs > into this problem.

I don't know whose's fault is that sw suspend doesn't work with mach64 dri (it could be sw suspend patch, mach64 drm, or the agpgart). I know that radeon driver has suspend/resume support, but I think it's for hardware suspend. Since I'm quite busy ATM I'm inclined to just wait and see how things go from here.
