hello,

as my bisect directed to drm but as I was unable to revert the commit, I 
took my 2.6.29rc2 kernel,  removed drivers/gpu/drm and include/drm and 
replaced them  with 2.6.28 files.
Rebooted into this new kernel, suspended to ram and ...same bug :(
so maybe there a bug in drm, but there another one elsewhere...
I checked /var/log/messages from a working and a non working kernel, and 
there's absolutely _nothing_ in non-working kernels
in working kernel i see suspend beginning like this :
Jan 19 21:50:47 etienne-desktop kernel: PM: Syncing filesystems ... done.
Jan 19 21:50:47 etienne-desktop kernel: [drm] Num pipes: 1


Are there any patch i could try?
Is it possible to run a git bisect excluding all drm commits to find the 
other bug?


regards
Etienne
