Hmm. I haven't tried it with noapic or nosmp options before. It ought to work; I'll see if I can

Yes. I've been meaning to change that; must get around to it.

Yes. The sequence of operations to force a redraw of the screen works okay under 2.4 but needs
looking at under 2.6.
but hey, it worked! I have "sleeping function called rom invalid
context at arch/i386/mm/highmem.c:5" called from kmap, copy_pageset1.
Yes. It needs to be atomic (it's the atomic copy) and pages might well be HighMem so I guess the
answer is to suppress the message rather than changing something in suspend.
