I normally use the closed source ATI fglrx driver with kernel module for not so horrendously slow graphics. With this kernel I could not combine the RC patches with the installed source to the extent that the fglrx module was happy to compile. I therefore tested without the module. I tested the apps I normally use, mythtv, browsing, e-mail etc. Everything (except accelerated glx graphics, as expected) worked, including pm-suspend. This is noteworthy since the resume portion of suspend has failed on all 2.6.17 FC kernels. (It did work on 2.6.16 kernels, and does work again with a stock 2.6.17.13 kernel, so I expected that it will also work with the next FC kernel.) The failure to resume is not related to the fglrx module - recent FC kernels also fail to resume without it. Regards Hendrik
