I wish (and was hoping) it was that simple.  The problem is the nature
of that patch really has no effect on my system because $acpi_flag =3D=3D 0
when the sysctl on line 147 is applied.  Presumably this patch has more
effect if $acpi_flag !=3D 0, by nature of either $QUIRK_S3_BIOS or
$QUIRK_S3_MODE being =3D=3D true, neither of which is in my case.  Maybe on=
e
or both should be.  I dunno.  I'm not sure how these "video quirks"
work.
