There is a new patch at: http://people.freebsd.org/~iedowse/vesa_restore.diff This needs to be applied on top of version 1.49, and should hopefully correct the behaviour when the VESA state requires more than 4k of space. Would you be able to test that this version does not crash for you on suspend? I don't fully understand why the previous version was faulting at 0x2000, since that page should have been mapped into the VM86 address space. However my code was definitely handling the kernel virtual addresses incorrectly, so maybe that was causing something to be overwritten. The updated patch allocates a contiguous virtual buffer and then maps each page into the VM86 address space starting at 0x1000. Ian
