Yep, the problem is just that: in 2.6.24 vbetool hacks (in my case,
using s2ram -p -m options) was needed to resume graphics. Now they are
not needed anymore, and using them _break_ resume.

So, people with a working suspend-to-ram setup (even using the whitelist
in s2ram, I mean, simply calling s2ram) will discover that 2.6.25 break
their machine. Removing the s2ram package and suspending with
kernel-only machinery will work, but... well, it's not user-friendly.
