Looks like I wasn't completely right above. I don't know yet whether userspace is using the ioctl or not, but it seems that calling the ioctl directly also fails when X is frontmost. Among other things I've noticed: - the APM emulation module isn't loaded by default. - the kernel isn't

With a bit more digging, it seems that for some reason, the APM emulation isn't doing the job it used to do of having X cleanup properly for suspend. It could be a bug with the recent X servers or ATI drivers, that's unclear. However, rather than trying to fix that, the best solution is to do
