2.6.11

Well, I've compiled and installed kernel 2.6.11 from kernel.org and I 
can confirm that it sends my iBook G4 1.2 ghz with ATI graphics to 
sleep.  But, like the 2.6.10 kernel from YDL, it refuses to properly 
wake up.

Does anyone have any ideas?  The LCD turns on (but remains black), the 
hard disk grinds for teeny bit, and the CD drive churns like it does at 
startup, but nothing appears on the screen.

Please note that I have the pmud service turned off, giving control to 
pbbuttonsd, and i'm using powernowd to control CPU frequency.

Thanks
Andy Zschetzsche
