PAE activates NX on 32-bit. So we probably had an NX regression that got fixed by the side-effects of one of the unifications. Does it start working if you disable NX via the noexec=off boot option?

What's the state of play here? Is upshot that this change fixed a bug which broke s2ram, or caused a bug which broke s2ram?


As far as I can tell, this change fixed a bug, and the fact that the bug was fixed triggered a s2ram bug.
