I tried to suspend the laptop after killing hald, but it did not help at
all. What else should I try? Another kernel?


This is a known issue with the ATI Rage 128 graphic card and the linux 2.6 kernel. Noone was interested in porting a feature complete management of the rage 128 chip for linux 2.6.x. So it is not able to restore a working state after suspend.

But it works great with the linux 2.4 kernel.

Good luck.
